Innovation is one of the cornerstones of PIXXIM. Known as a "young innovative enterprise" up to 2008, PIXXIM allocates more than 20% of its total wage bill to R&D.
In 2009, backed by OSEO for an urban environment automatic modelling project, PIXXIM won the "Serious Gaming" proposal call issued by the French Secretariat of State for Economic Forecasts and the Digital Economy Recovery Plan.
Our R&D programme is based on a production line of 3D urban models, dubbed PX-LAB, and on tools for real-time viewing of digital 3D models.
We give special weight to display performance and graphic quality, which implies constantly optimizing our PX-VIEWER tool and developing ever more advanced computer-generated image algorithms.
One of the noteworthy tools in our PX-LAB software range is PX-MAPPER, dedicated to the automatic texturing of buildings based on automated shooting using an on-board vehicle system developed internally. This application uses highly advanced image processing and aerial triangulation techniques.
