Founded in 1991, with initial software development dating back to 1988, Okino Computer Graphics is a leading provider of high quality and industry respected 3D data translation and photo-realistic rendering software for Microsoft Windows and component libraries for software developers.
Okino's efforts are focused on the development and commercialization of 2D and 3D digital asset "pipeline" software, components, and solutions that streamline customer data pipelines and/or allow them to add new 2D/3D tool capabilities to their current production environment. Customers cover the design content creation (DCC) market, game development market, MCAD/AEC, movie production and in general any market sector that deals with 3D graphics and its related 2D assets (as reflected in our well known customer names list). It is commonly stated by others that 1 in every 2 people within our industry either owns a copy of Okino software, has used it at a past company, or knows of someone who uses it.
If you are new to Okino and our software then please take a moment to read this page about what has made our software's usage so wide spread throughout the 3D industry. Okino's core and founding philosophy has been "one to one" personal customer relations and support, an often overlooked and neglected aspect of today's software industry, based on our customer feedback.
Okino products have always been developed and sold as "problem solving tools". 2D/3D data conversion, photo-realistic rendering, real-time rendering/viewing, and animation authoring/conversion have been key development areas at Okino since 1991 with newer developments focused on WEB access and delivery of Okino technology.
Okino Computer Graphics is a software development and marketing corporation that pursues aggressive research and development for three major product lines:
NuGraf is a highly respected rendering, viewing and accurate 3d scene translation program for Microsoft Windows. NuGraf was originally designed to be the most efficient and fastest CAD rendering program available for Windows. This was achieved by devoting 2 decades of development to its optimized 3D converters, its efficient memory management routines, its fast interactive graphical user interface and its efficient CAD-optimized photo-realistic renderers. NuGraf is the one and only main application program developed by Okino, with PolyTrans being a simpler to use variation of the NuGraf package.
PolyTrans is the leading data translation system with ten's of thousands of companies as its prime user base. Okino pioneeded the entire pipeline and concepts of cross conversion between the CAD, DCC and VisSim applications + file formats, well before the widespread use of PolyTrans made this commonplace. PolyTrans is simpler derivation of the NuGraf software package (without various added features).
The NuGraf Developer's 3D Toolkit contains the core of Okino's software technology that has been packaged as a componentized SDK (software development kit) that other developers may license at an affordable entry-level price. The toolkit forms the inner core of Okino's main NuGraf and PolyTrans software products. It allows complex 3D software applications to be quickly built simply by adding a graphical user interface. The toolkit contains one of the fastest and most efficient photo-realistic renderers currently available in addition to a wide variety of support functions, geometric primitives and callback mechanisms. The toolkit, however, does not contain the PolyTrans data translation technology. Okino's plug-in converter SDK is built upon and utilizes the NuGraf SDK and API - this is one of the most refined, stable and ideal SDKs + API for data translation available today.
Our company philosophy since 1991 has been to bring the fastest, most efficient and most technically advanced software to the PC and UNIX platforms. In addition, we continually strive to provide excellent technical support both to our users as well as to our potential customers.
As much as "Okino" is a common Japanese last name, we are not a Japanese company. Okino is a private, self funded and self sufficient Canadian corporation. The name "Okino" was derived from an academic paper citation to "Professor Okino" of Tokyo Japan, in the 3D computer graphics book on character animation by Thalmann & Thalmann.
