Additive Manufacturing Demo

This demo showcases how HOOPS Communicator can be used to create an additive manufacturing application. Within this demo we have a model sitting on a print bed and an overhead view showing how the parts have been laid out on the print bed. Additionally there are multiple buttons to do things like move parts, instance or duplicate a part, and auto-arrange the print bed. You can select a part on in the viewer to see additional information about it within the inspector view in the bottom right corner of the demo.

This demo comes with a full step-by-step tutorial that will show you how to implement this project yourself found here
