			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This new release of Openspace3D that we are launching today will be first time exhibited next February 4th and 5th at the IMAGINA tradeshow in Monaco.<br />
This new release adds much more stablility and ergonomics. It also contains many new features: integration of physics, flash control, stereo mode, browser plugins, network and comes with new demos.<br />
With this new release we aim to develop new uses for 3D real-time collaboration in the field of training (serious games), simulation, marketing (Virtual Showroom) e-commerce, real estate ( virtual tours) and industry (rapid prototyping) and offer an alternative to proprietary platforms.<br />
I-Maginer offers you a partnership in your 3D real-time development projects with a wide range of services associated with the opensource platform Openspace3D:</p>
<ul>
<li>Project management consulting</li>
<li>Custom development</li>
<li>Training</li>
<li>Integration and server installation</li>
</ul>
<p>Our production and R &#38; D teams (project managers, engineers, developers and technicians) are at your service.<br />
Feel free to contact us directly for more information.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OpenSpace3D Editor Alpha version is the first step of the OpenSpace3D Project (OpenSource and online collaborative Platform for the development of real time and interactive 3D project). This first version of the editor runs as a local and mono user software.</p>
<p>Based on the 3D rendering Engine &#8220;Ogre 3D&#8221;, OpenSpace3D allows you to create full 3D applications by assembling functions to create interactions. A player is available to distribute created applications: the OpenSpace3d player.</p>
<h3><strong>Now available ! <span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 13px; ">OpenSpace3D Editor first alpha release.</span></strong></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 13px; ">OpenSpace3D Editor needs the Scol Voy@ger 6.0 to run.</span></p>
