About

RPS 3D Viewer

Features
Read full description

RPS 3D Viewer is a companion app to our RPS Software design applications. The Salesperson creates the customer's design using an RPS application, and then passes a unique code to the customer (you) to input to the viewer. This allows you to view your design in their home and even use Augmented Reality to look at it on their table top or in full scale in situ, and request any adjustments from the salesperson. The application requires a design code from your Salesperson in order to view your design(s), although there is a demo option available to showcase sample designs.
