The document introduces Autodesk's Forge AR/VR Toolkit. It discusses how Forge is a developer platform that powers connections between design, manufacturing, and other data. The toolkit allows 3D models to be easily prepared for use in augmented and virtual reality by converting formats, generating levels of detail, and repairing topology through the Forge API. It aims to streamline the typically complex and manual process of model preparation for AR/VR. Demos of the toolkit and roadmap features are presented.
