Our 3D models are based on detailed measurements and photography of authentic hand-woven kikoi. The texture, drape, and proportions accurately represent traditional East African cotton weaving techniques, including the characteristic 44 threads/cm² density and fringe construction.

The wall hanging visualization shows how kikoi appears as decorative art. While not augmented reality, the 3D tool provides realistic perspective on size, color, and pattern visibility for home décor planning.

Yes, every use case is based on documented historical practices from Swahili coastal communities. The sarong, head wrap, and baby carrier methods represent traditional techniques passed down through generations. Modern applications like towels honor the textile's natural properties.

Absolutely! The 3D visualizer is fully optimized for mobile devices with touch controls. You can rotate the kikoi by dragging, zoom with pinch gestures, and access all features on smartphones and tablets.

Each pattern represents traditional Swahili color symbolism: Classic Coastal (blue for peace, white for purity), Sunset Zanzibar (earth tones for prosperity), and Royal Swahili (purple for royalty, gold for wisdom). Cultural meanings are provided for educational context.

The visualizer showcases authentic patterns available through our artisan partners. While you can't order directly from the 3D tool, it helps you understand different styles before contacting us for custom hand-woven kikoi production.

The visualizer typically loads within 2-3 seconds on broadband connections. The tool uses optimized 3D models and textures for fast loading while maintaining visual quality. A loading indicator shows progress during initial setup.

The tool works on all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. It uses WebGL technology built into browsers, so no plugins are required. Best performance is achieved on devices with hardware graphics acceleration.
