About Gravity Sketch
Gravity Sketch lets designers sketch, model and review products in 3D at full scale using virtual reality headsets. You draw strokes and surfaces in space, build forms with subdivision and NURBS-style geometry, and step around or inside a design to judge proportions and ergonomics, something that is hard to do on a flat screen. Collaboration rooms let several people meet in the same virtual space to review models, and files export to standard formats for refinement in CAD or rendering tools. Footwear, automotive and consumer-product companies use it for early concept work, while individual creators use it for art and game assets. It needs a VR headset for creation and is not a precise engineering CAD tool. A free plan includes the core creation tools with limited cloud storage and export formats, a Plus plan serves individuals, and team and enterprise plans add security controls.
Best for: Industrial designers who want to sketch and review concepts at 1:1 scale in VR.
