3D Framework That Does Not Break the UX

Qt Framework offers the flexibility to choose the best hardware for your project without being limited to high-end development machines, all while ensuring smooth and responsive interfaces. Your 3D graphics will stay consistent over time, and when you need to optimize, you have full access to the code to customize it exactly how you want.

Full 3D Framework

Build modern 3D user interfaces without the overhead of a game engine, to ensure optimal and stable performance.

Build in 3D

Blend 2D and 3D Natively

Combine 2D and 3D graphics in the same interface without switching tools or languages.

Mix & Match

Cross-Platform 3D Scenes

Create your 3D UI once and deploy it across different hardware platforms without rewriting code.

Deploy to Targets

With the previous solution, memory usage was gradually creeping up. At first, everything looked fine, but then the UI started maxing out the hardware and crashing. After switching to Qt, we immediately saw an 85% reduction in memory usage, with performance staying consistent over time.

3D USER INTERFACES

A Professional 3D Framework with Everything You Need

The Qt 3D framework offers the same capabilities as a game engine without unnecessary overhead like player logic, level systems, and game loops.

From simple 3D objects to complex interactive scenes, Qt provides everything you need to build professional 3D graphics.

Import or create models
Apply realistic materials and lighting
Add animations and physics
Customize with shaders as needed.

Since Qt is optimized for designing user interfaces, performance remains consistent and optimal.

NATIVE 2D, 2.5D, 3D GRAPHICS

Blend 2D, 2.5D, and 3D Without Workarounds

Build interfaces that mix 2D and 3D objects without the hassle of using separate toolkits.

Qt Quick 3D is an extension of Qt Quick, so you can use the same language and codebase whether you’re designing flat graphics, 2.5D effects, or complex 3D scenes.

Need to add a 3D model to a 2D dashboard? Done. Want interactive 2D controls inside a 3D environment? No problem.

It all works together naturally, letting you focus on creating great interfaces instead of wrestling with integration.

CROSS-PLATFORM 3D GRAPHICS

Consistent 3D UIs Across All Your Products

Companies with multiple product lines can provide the same high-quality 3D experience across entry-level to premium devices without rewriting from scratch for each platform.

Develop on Linux, Windows, or Mac, and deploy on a wide range of operating systems, browsers, or bare metal.

The Qt 3D framework scales naturally from low-power to high-performance systems, while QtRhi automatically translates your graphics to the right API: Vulkan, Direct3D, OpenGL, or Metal.

Design once, deploy everywhere, and ensure your product family looks and performs consistently.
