A new concept and many new faces - this year's RTT Excite turned out to be a real success for RTT. Approximately 600 visualization experts from more than 20 countries converged on May 6-7 in Munich to explore the future of 3D visualization.

Four themed lounges - design, development, marketing and sales - were rich with lectures, workshops and demos to showcase the range of 3D technology and its applications within those segments. Well-known brands including Porsche, Audi, Adidas and EADS presented comprehensive overviews of the technology and its enormous development potential, while guest speakers from creative companies such as Pixar Animation Studios and Amazon rounded out the expansive program. 

The traditional conference concept was replaced by Excite's interactive format, which helped to increase the level of communication between exhibitors, presenters and guests. Sample applications displayed at RTT Excite demonstrated the central role 3D visualization is able to play in the most diverse industrial settings.

Excite visitors were able to familiarize themselves with all aspects of 3D visualization in realtime at over 40 demo stations.

More events in the USA and Asia are to follow - so expect to see more!
