"Although it is behind the scenes, HOOPS is a vital part of just about every major and minor graphical mechanical engineering software package - CAD, CAM, and CAE. Without them, the engineering software market (for better or worse) would almost certainly not be where it is today. The features of Release 10.0 are interesting, but so are the platforms supported, including Mac OS X and Tablet PC. "

Tech Soft 3D, LLC (TS3D) provides premier development tools, training and consulting, enabling our customers to rapidly deliver world-class technical software.
TS3D's HOOPS® technology is the leading graphics component in the CAD/CAM/CAE market with libraries embedded in and enhancing over 175 commercial software applications. Our customers range from small software vendors to some of the biggest names in the industry, including Autodesk, SolidWorks, Dassault Systemes, PTC, Bentley, MSC.Software, Fluent, IronCAD, Mitutoyo, Landmark Graphics, Minitab, Hitachi Zosen and Informative Graphics.
Companies look to TS3D to serve as a virtual extension of their R&D teams. We provide critical foundation technologies and expertise so our customers can focus on their respective core competencies. This allows them to improve their products, speed time to market and reduce R&D expenses.
TS3D was formed in 1996 when the company’s founders spun the market-proven HOOPS Graphics System away from Autodesk. Since then we’ve been singularly dedicated to extending the HOOPS technology and serving the graphics needs of our loyal client base. This commitment is reflected in our 12 straight years of revenue growth and profitability. Most importantly, it shows in our steadily growing list of highly satisfied customers.
TS3D is a private firm that is
wholly owned by its employees, each of whom is deeply focused on producing
superb component software and to helping our customers build great solutions.
We’ve established an efficient, vibrant, team-oriented and customer-focused
environment. We’re proud of what we have built, and we love to see
our libraries in action within any of the several million seats of HOOPS-based
applications in use on desktops worldwide.
