FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Stuttgart, Germany – 6th February 2026

Abstract, a deep-tech company pioneering cutting-edge 3D and AI technology solutions, announces the upcoming release of InstaLOD 2026, a major update focused on improving visualization, automation, and optimization for modern 3D production. Launching on February 11th, the update brings viewport raytracing, automatic VR optimization, advanced bakers, and much more.

What’s Coming

InstaLOD 2026 brings powerful enhancements that make 3D asset preparation faster, more precise, and highly scalable. Teams will benefit from raytraced shadows in the viewport for cinematic-quality previews, 3D primitive-based UV unwrapping for highly customizable UV layouts, and automatic optimization for VR platforms with an added VR target in the Delivery Optimization mesh operation that ensures smooth performance on immersive devices.

The Mesh Toolkit has also been expanded with new cleanup and conversion capabilities, including mesh smoothing for messy scan data and improved automatic winding order correction to prevent flipped faces when transforming CAD models into polygons. The baking pipeline grows as well, introducing advanced options like Disk Sampling Curvature for more accurate curvature maps and Bevel Normals that create smooth, rounded edges without increasing polygon counts. Broader animation support across all major 3D formats ensures seamless asset exchange, while enhanced Polyverse integration lets users browse, download, and import meshes directly inside InstaLOD Studio for faster, more connected workflows.

With these updates, InstaLOD 2026 empowers studios and technical teams to process heavy source data more efficiently, maintain higher asset quality, and scale their pipelines with confidence, setting a new standard for geometry optimization across productions.
