For Scanning Appearance Characteristics
The TAC7 scanner captures and stores color, texture, gloss and other surface appearance characteristics of physical material samples.
For Creating Virtual Materials and File Formats
PANTORA, a desktop application, is the controlling hub of the TAC ecosystem. It allows users to store, manage, view and edit digitally captured materials and to exchange these materials, via a vendor neutral Appearance Exchange (AxF) file format.
For Communicating Material Appearance Data
AxF is a vendor-neutral file format that digitally stores and shares a material’s appearance properties across PLM, CAD and rendering applications.
