3D modelling on computers is used by Product Designers, these people create virtually anything within programmes like TrueSpace or Solidworks CAD. Instead of a physical product, the designers create a graphic 3D image on the software package they are using; this method is ultimately cheaper than physical creation as it allows any shape or form to be created without having to pay for materials in building a physical example.

3D is used in a large variety of ways. One of which is the video game industry.
The first eve game to be created using 3D was 3D Monster Maze. 3D Monster Maze was created in 1981 had a 16 KB memory expansion. The gameplay features a randomly generated 16 by 18 cell maze. The played must travel through this maze without being caught by the T. rex which hunts the player within. The T. rex does not begin to hunt the player until they have began to move, the closer to the T. rex the player comes the more active it will be.

The Fifth Generation
The Fifth Generation of Console Video Games (sometimes referred to as the 32-bit Era, but referring to consoles by their bits started to fall out of style in this gen) was a time of many of the biggest leaps forward in the industry in terms of design, graphics, and storytelling in video games, as well as the way video games were viewed and played.

One of the most iconic consoles from this time is the Nintendo 64, or N64 for short. This console featured games such as Bomber man 64; Banjo-Kazooie and Duke Nukem 64.
