Streamline Your 3D Workflow

Getting 3D models onto a standalone headset can be a friction-heavy process. Glimpse GLB removes the barriers.


Why we standardized on GLB

We chose the GLB format as our standard because it is the industry leader for portability. It embeds all textures, materials, animations, and PBR data (albedo, metalness, roughness) into a single, efficient file.

  • GLB Standard
  • All-in-One
  • Fast Loading
Loading Models

Seamless Local
File Management

Typing long URLs in VR is a thing of the past. Glimpse GLB focuses on a "Local First" approach for instant loading times and privacy.

  • Google Drive / Cloud: Simply log in via the Quest Browser, download your GLB, and launch Glimpse.
  • Sketchfab: Download assets directly to your headset's local storage.
  • USB Transfer: Drag-and-drop files from your PC directly to the Quest via USB.
Environment

Environment &
Mixed Reality

View your models in your physical room using the Quest’s high-res Passthrough (MR) mode, or switch to a full virtual studio.

Includes adjustable shadow planes, customizable reflection probes, and dynamic sun/lighting controls to match your artistic vision.

Interaction

Precision Interaction
& Inspection

A user interface that stays out of your way. Enjoy precise movement and rotation controls via controller input.

Switch instantly between 'Tabletop Mode' for inspection and '1:1 Scale' for real-world context validation.

Core Capabilities

Built for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

  • High-Fidelity

    Support for albedo, metalness, roughness, and lightmaps for realistic rendering.

  • Animation

    Full control over animation playback, speed, and state management.

  • Mixed Reality

    Toggle Passthrough to place 3D objects directly in your living room or office.

  • Intuitive UI

Future Development

We are actively developing the next generation of Glimpse.

Glimpse GLB is growing from a hobby project into a professional tool. Upcoming features for the Pro version include:

  • Hand Tracking 2.0: Ditch the controllers and manipulate objects with natural gestures.
  • Multi-Model Staging: Load and arrange multiple GLB files to create complete scenes.
  • Hierarchy Explorer: Deep dive into your model's node structure with visibility toggles.
  • Pro Environments: Exclusive access to studio-grade lighting setups.
