# Introduction

Since the foundation of SimLab Soft, our mission has been clearly defined as developing state-of-the-art 3D software that is affordable, fun, and easy to use. This led to the development of SimLab Composer (SLC) with the vision of enabling interactive VR.

<div id="bkmrk-"></div>SimLab Composer is not a modeling application, but it is a 3D scene composition application, which allows the user to import 3D files in different formats, arrange them, adjust their materials, and add options, animations, simulation, and interactivity behaviors. After that the user can use the composed scenes in many different ways, it can be used to create photo-realistic rendered images, or share as a 3D PDF, WebGL, or a VR Experience.

These tools are described later in the [Accompanying Applications](https://simlab-soft.com/help/books/simlab-composer-help/chapter/accompanying-applications "Accompanying Applications") section of this manual.</div><div>
