Sample 3D Invention Videos

• Personal Computer Disassembly Intro (the opening scene of an animation showing the complete disassembly and reassembly of a PC, with over 1500 parts.

• GKL Hinge Doctor (3D digital video in Flash) (Extended version)

• GKL Lock Bridges (3D digital video in Flash with voiceover)
  

• Balloon Catheter and Stent (sample BioMedial Device animation)

• SpinalGlide™ (3D digital video in Flash)

• Spring Rain - Summer Breeze Washing Machine Appliance invention (3D animation rendered to Flash vectors) NEW

• Gargle Timer invention (3D Animation, Flash animation and patent drawings)

• Fanatico Sports Lamps (Interactive 3D Flash animation, audio & logo design)

• Flip Back 360° Notebook (3D digital video animation)

• iWrap (This was a personal project that has since been abandoned due to obsolescence. This example shows how 3D illlustrations can be presented in a dynamic way without any 3D animation.)

I am located in the San Francisco Bay Area but my clients come from all over the world. I will frequently complete a project without ever meeting the client. Email me or call (USA) 925-949-4785 for a free consultation.

Note: Much of my best Invention illustration and animation work is under nondisclosure agreements and unfortunately cannot be displayed. However, the samples shown on this page below should provide a good sense of the range and quality of my work.

I have produced many animations, drawings, and photorealistic still images that cover a broad range of invention types.

Invention 3D Graphics & Illustrations

I can use 3D models and frames from 3D animations to generate still images at any resolution for printed promotional materials, product instructions, package illustrations and patent drawings. I can also design a logo for your product or business.

• 3D illustration & Patent Drawing Project

• Product Directions / Instructions (sample line art illustrations)

• Photorealistic 3D illustrations

• Animation and Illustrations rendered from 3D to Flash vectors (displayed as outlines, without texturing or photorealism, for small file size)

• Stereographic images (these require 3D glasses for the 3D effect to be visible)
  

• Benefits of building a 3D virtual prototype of an invention

I am occasionally invited to present at independent inventor group meetings.

Inventor Resources

Highly informative seminars presented by Stephen Key, a successful inventor, produced by Stephen Key and Andrew Krauss, the long-time president of the Inventor's Alliance.

This is an invaluable resource for any inventor who wants to learn how to streamline the process of bringing an invention to market. Even the most experienced inventor should find this a must-attend seminar. Many attendees return again and again because of the valuable insights learned. The cost is low and it represents excellent value for money. They also have a home study course available for those who can't travel to Northern California. Tel: 1-800-701-7993

PBS television show that helps inventors develop their ideas and bring them to market. This is how every invention-related TV show should be made!

A great place to work on your own projects. They provide a wide range of machine tools that you can use and offer a variety of classes. New facilities are planned around the country.

Evergreen IP helps inventors develop their inventions and license them.

San Francisco Bay Area Inventors' Societies and Support Groups

These are a few links to active nonprofit inventors' societies in Central and Northern California.

They are great groups and invaluable resources for networking, learning from other inventor's successes and missteps, hearing informed speakers on very pertinent topics, and gaining tips on how to avoid being ripped off by shady invention marketing businesses. These are all friendly, experienced and supportive groups.

Inventor's society with Santa Clara and Sacramento, CA chapters). There are no membership fees -- only a nominal fee for each meeting. Phone: 650-964-1576

P.S. Take a look at their new site navigation design -- we designed it for the Inventor's Alliance (we also do web design and have received some prominent awards for our work).

** NEW ** Inventor's Alliance Internet Chapter. Now you can participate in meetings from anywhere in the world!
