How JigSpace works

Autodesk Maya is a 3D animation software used by artists in film, gaming, and visual effects industries. JigSpace easily converts Maya models into interactive 3D presentations and immersive augmented reality experiences. We call them 'Jigs'. Jigs make the hard to explain, hard to forget. From launching a new product at a trade show or training your team on a new assembly process.
