Daz 3D

Daz Productions, Inc. (commonly known as Daz 3D, stylized Daz^3D or DAZ 3D in certain logos) is a 3D-content and software company specialized in providing rigged 3D human models, associated accessory content, and software to hobbyists as well as the prosumer market.

Daz 3D has a library of over 5 million assets for Daz Studio and other applications that allow users to create high-quality exportable 3D renders and animations. Daz 3D has continued to focus on 3D-content development, but has also expanded their own software offerings as well, with purchases of several notable 3D applications:

• Bryce, a fractal-based landscape modeler and renderer acquired from Corel by Daz 3D in 2004.
• Hexagon, a 3D mesh modeler originally developed by Eovia, acquired by Daz 3D in 2006.
• Carrara, a general purpose 3D modeler/animation package also acquired from Eovia in 2006.

Additionally, Daz 3D developed their own scene creator software, Daz Studio, as an alternative to Poser.
