The app was built with VR and phone-based AR platforms in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">To kickstart users uploading content, Google commissioned artists to create thousands of objects, everything from an oven to an iceberg to a can of whipped cream so that the platform starts with a base level of utility for creators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">It\u2019s an all-you-can-eat Creative Commons buffet as Google is focused (for now at least) on building a discovery platform stocked with freebies rather than one filled with creators hocking their 3D objects for cash.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Many of the objects you see featured will have the low-polygon style that are familiar in Blocks, the company\u2019s VR 3D object creation app. Google says this is partially a stylistic choice, but it\u2019s also a great fit for the company\u2019s Daydream VR platform, which is often resource-intensive and will obviously run more efficiently when the objects it\u2019s rendering are a bit simpler.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Moves like this that position Google more firmly in the camp of game developers are interesting ones for the company, which has generally approached that community in a more round-about way. Here, Google is adding functionality found in other places like the Unity and Unreal game engines\u2019 asset stores, but is doing so in a way that seems to be very much additive to the experience of game devs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 8pt\">Source:-\u00a0https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2017\/11\/01\/google-launches-poly-a-home-for-the-worlds-3d-objects-built-for-creators\/<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/technology\/google-launches-poly-a-home-for-the-worlds-3d-objects-built-for-creators.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google launches Poly, a home for the world&#8217;s 3D objects built for creators Google launches Poly, a home for the world&#8217;s 3D objects built for creators:- As Google builds platforms like ARCore and Daydream that allow users to step into virtual worlds or put virtual scenes inside their phone\u2019s field-of-view, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":50163,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[973,13],"tags":[90774,90777,90776,90772,90775,6238,90773],"class_list":["post-50154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-internet","category-technology","tag-big-onus-on-game-developers","tag-creative-commons-buffet-as-google","tag-google-commissioned-artists","tag-google-launches-poly","tag-launch-of-poly","tag-world-wide-web","tag-worlds-3d-objects-built"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=50154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/50163"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=50154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=50154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=50154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
