Frequently Asked Questions

Maverick Excelsior is a real-time jewelry visualization solution that runs directly on the web browser. With it, you can effortlessly produce images and videos, or publish jewelry creations online. It works smoothly on desktops, tablets, and mobile phones. Excelsior consists of two components: Web Excelsior Editor and Web Excelsior Viewer.

The Web Excelsior Editor imports McNeel's Rhinoceros 3DM files. The Web Excelsior Viewer uses a proprietary format that can only be authored from the Web Excelsior Editor and explored from the Web Excelsior Viewer.

No. You can't. From its inception, Maverick Excelsior has been designed to be a jewelry-specific solution. The light transfer and material appearance technology is designed specifically for precious metals and gemstones.

Maverick Excelsior runs directly on the web browser, so virtually any modern device with a web browser should be compatible. It has been tested on Windows computers, Android tablets/phones, Macintosh computers, and iPad/iPhone devices.

Yes, an internet connection is required. The Web Excelsior Editor is a web application hosted in cloud servers which you can access directly from your web browser.

No. Broadly speaking, it doesn't. Any modern device with a web browser from the past 5+ years should be able to run Excelsior smoothly.

Yes, it is. It is a web application hosted in cloud servers and requires an active plan to run.

The Web Excelsior Viewer is the online interactive presentation component of Maverick Excelsior. It allows you to publish and share your jewelry designs as interactive 3D experiences that work on any device with a web browser.

At RandomControl, we take pride in developing our own proprietary technology. With over 20 years of experience and innovations like Maverick Render, we have been at the forefront of physically-based rendering engine development. Maverick Excelsior is a web application designed to run seamlessly on a wide range of modern devices, from desktops to tablets and mobile phones. To achieve this, we engineered the Excelsior engine with carefully defined constraints that ensure compatibility and deliver optimal performance across all platforms. For those with a technical background, our development process extensively utilizes web technologies such as WebAssembly and WebGL2.

Both Maverick Excelsior and Maverick Render are leading solutions for high-fidelity jewelry visualization. However, there are some key differences:

• Maverick Excelsior provides jewelry-specific features only. This laser-focused approach is the reason why Excelsior is so extraordinarily straightforward. Maverick Render on the other hand is an all-purpose render engine. While it can do jewelry exceptionally well, it can also handle any other type of 3D content. This comes with the burden of a much more dense UI and a steeper learning curve.
• With Maverick Excelsior you can publish interactive experiences online in addition to rendering images and videos, whereas you can only create renders with Maverick Render.
• Compatibility-wise, Maverick Excelsior is a web application and runs directly on the web browser, while Maverick Render is a classic desktop (Windows) application.
• Maverick Excelsior runs virtually anywhere, while Maverick Render requires a modern Nvidia RTX GPU and a Windows PC
