3Dconnexion, a Logitech company, and the developer of 3D motion controllers, announced that its line of motion controllers now support digital content creation (DCC) applications. Support was announced for Adobe Photoshop, Discreet's 3ds max, Alias' Maya, Kaydara's MOTIONBUILDER and MAXON's CINEMA 4D and BodyPaint 3D. Game Developers and Film/TV Animation artists using these applications can now take advantage of the benefits of a 3Dconnexion motion controller

In a related announcement, 3Dconnexion explained how its motion controllers bring the benefits of Two Handed Power to modeling and animation tasks. One hand on the motion controller takes over many of the necessary scene or camera viewing movements while simultaneously the other hand on the mouse creates, edits or selects models or objects. Artists engaged in intense creation projects can now finish faster and with significantly greater comfort. Representatives from the DCC software vendors are enthusiastic about the benefits of Two Handed Power for their customers.
