To give customers the opportunity to create customised 3D texts for their products, we have developed a 3D text generator. This generator allows customers to choose from different fonts, colours and effects to create their own 3D text and view it in real time before placing their order.

Programming challenges

A particular challenge was the development of an algorithm that makes it possible to render fonts in 3D and display both the font and emojis correctly. The algorithm is so computationally intensive that we needed an Nvidia GPU to be able to render the fonts in real time.

In the first image, you can see the text when the letters are not connected. In the second image, the letters are connected but not yet optimised. The third image shows the final text, which is also optimised for emojis.
