RealityConvert is a software tool, which allows users to easily convert molecular objects (stored as pdb or sdf files) to high quality 3D models directly compatible for AR and VR applications. For chemical structures, in addition to the 3D model generation, RealityConvert also generates image trackers, useful to universally call and anchor that particular 3D model when used in various AR applications.
