Consumer habits have drastically evolved over the past decade. The global eCommerce market will surpass $6.3 trillion in 2024. Therefore, consumers are attuned to eCommerce at an unprecedented rate. In this competitive market, relying on 2D imagery is not enough. To showcase their products, brands have been reliant on 3D visualizations.

3D configurators powered by live 3D models allow customers to experience the product they are purchasing from all angles. The service permits customers to customize attributes such as texture, color, and other components in real time from any device.

What is an ecommerce 3D product configurator?

KiXR is a digital solution primarily used by eCommerce businesses to help consumers build or personalize their products before purchasing them. eCommerce product configurators give users a 360-degree view of an interactive item.

3D configurators are intuitive and user-friendly. They are critical to e-shopping because interaction and personalization make customers feel as if their interests, likes, and thoughts are taken into consideration. 82% of the visitors to your product page are likely to engage a 3D product model. eCommerce configurators also increase the amount of time a customer spends on a product page.

3D configurators do not have the drawbacks that come with traditional image-based product configurators. They have multifarious benefits.
