Unity Toolbox

Unity is the worlds leading game engine which can be used to create real-time 3D graphics for the display on screens and virtual-reality headsets. The Unity Toolbox allows you to couple variables in your 20-sim model to objects in Unity. When you run your model in the 20-sim simulator, a display will show up, with the Unity animation. As a convenience, you can also convert all your old 20-sim 3D animation scenes to Unity with a single press of a button.
