Daz 3D
Daz Productions, Inc. (commonly known as Daz 3D, stylized Daz3D or DAZ 3D in certain logos) is a 3D-content and software company, specializing in providing rigged 3D human models, associated accessory content, and software.
Originally a part of Zygote Media Group, a general purpose, application-agnostic broker of 3D content, Daz 3D split off as Digital Art Zone in 2000 to focus on supplying content for the Poser market. The company no longer uses that name, and does not treat "Daz" as an acronym for it.
In 2012, Daz 3D shifted their strategy from selling 3D software and content to giving the software away for free and focusing more on the selling of the content. This began with offering Daz Studio for free in 2012, which gave customers the ability to render images and videos, and was expanded in 2017 when Daz 3D added Hexagon to the list of their free software products and added the ability to do 3D modelling to that mix.
In 2011, Daz 3D moved to the Genesis platform, where instead of each figured being designed individually, they were derived as morphs from the base mesh. Two of the key differences that this technology created were: the ability for characters to be blended into a huge variety of shapes; and, since these shapes were all derived from a common base, add-on content like clothing, hair, and additional morphs could both work on all characters and change with the characters.
The Genesis platform has gone through several versions since the launch in 2011. Genesis 9 was released in mid-October 2022. [citation needed]
In January 2022, Daz 3D minted a NFT collection "Non-Fungible People" featuring 8,888 unique female and non-binary PFP avatars. NFP avatars can be used almost anywhere that supports 3D characters — including those used in real-time — from popular video game engines to AR and streaming software.
Daz 3D has a library of over 5 million assets for Daz Studio and other applications that allow users to create high-quality exportable 3D renders and animations. Daz 3D continues to focus on 3D-content development and has expanded its software offerings by acquiring several notable 3D applications:
Additionally, Daz 3D developed their own scene creator software, Daz Studio, as an alternative to Poser.
