About Pointcarre 3D Mapping

Deep Dive with Clara AI

Pointcarre Mapping is a professional 3D textile visualization software that lets designers see their fabrics and patterns on real photographs with stunning realism. Used across apparel, upholstery and home furnishing markets, it turns a flat design into a lifelike product image, draped naturally onto a garment, a sofa or any surface, before a single meter of fabric is produced. Running natively on both Mac and PC, it lets creative studios and production floors share the same software and files. Present your seasonal collections in dynamic ways in just a few clicks: simply select a fabric design and drag and drop it onto the picture. The grid options let you bend, stretch and adjust the fabric so it follows the model and the surface naturally, and the mapping is done automatically, with each design at the right scale and no calculations to make. Very easy to learn in only a few hours, it is one of the most accessible 3D mapping solutions available. Pointcarre automatically extracts the shadows from the photograph and applies them to the fabric for a powerful depth effect and a truly photorealistic result. It works with high-resolution textures and lets you change a texture's color, scale, rotation and position, so several colorways of the same product can be presented from a single photograph. The module accepts .aco color libraries from Photoshop and Pantone, embeds the CSI Colorwall library, and exports to JPEG, TIFF, PNG and BMP with full Adobe compatibility. As the first textile CAD to embed AI, Pointcarre offers Design Maker, Repeat Maker and AI Upscaling, so a pattern can be created, repeated, enhanced and mapped onto a scene in one application. By replacing physical samples with realistic 3D visuals, Mapping lowers costs, speeds time to market and supports a more sustainable process. Backed by serious training, the Pointcarre Academy platform and support by phone, chat, email and remote control, Mapping is a complete, modern solution.
