DGG receives 4 million euros to continue developing 3D printing technology

Darmstadt DGG (Darmstadt Graphics Group), a deep tech startup specializing in graphics technologies, recently closed a successful funding round. Led by European VC IRIS, DGG has secured €4 million to continue developing its groundbreaking 3D printing technology. DGG reported this in a press release for 3D-borderless magazine.

A journey from research to innovation

DGG has its roots in eight years of research at the Fraunhofer Institute for Graphical Data Processing (IGD). It was here that the scientists and founders of DGG later realized that the process of optimizing complex 3D content was still mainly manual and therefore time consuming. Solving this problem was the focus of their work.

RapidCompact: The Revolution in 3D Printing Visualization

Thanks to the RapidCompact software, DGG has greatly simplified the optimization and manipulation of 3D models. The software and API allow companies and platform partners to integrate the technology into their back-end infrastructure and thus deploy thousands of 3D models for various 3D and XR applications in real time within a few hours.

Growth and expansion of vision

With the new funding, DGG plans to accelerate its growth and expand its research and development activities. RapidCompact has already won popular clients like Adidas, OTTO, and Shopify and has created over 2 million optimized 3D models.

In addition, the DGG team is already working on a new product to be presented at the upcoming SIGGRAPH conference in Los Angeles.
