Poser includes a library of pre-built, ready-to-use content including body and hand poses, materials, props, facial expressions, hairpieces, lights, cameras and scenes, and a Reyes-based render engine called Firefly which supports nodes for the creation of complex materials. While Poser's interface has evolved since the product's introduction in 1995, the current Poser 11 and Poser Pro 11 preserve many of the application's original interface elements so that legacy users can move into the newest version and navigate without relearning the program's controls.
#POSER DEBUT 3D MAC OS X#
Poser is available for both Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems. Poser is available in multiple languages including English, Japanese, German and French. As Poser itself does not allow for original modeling of objects, a large community market of artists has emerged, in which Poser content is created and sold through various third party channels. The package also includes poses, hairpieces, props, textures, hand gestures and facial expressions. Using a subset of the Alias object ( OBJ) file format and a text-based markup for content files, Poser comes with a large library of pre-rigged human, animal, robotic, and cartoon figures.

Similar to a virtual photography studio, Poser allows the user to load figures, props, lighting and cameras for both still and animated renderings. Poser is a 3D rendering software package for the posing, animating and rendering of 3D poly-mesh human and animal figures.
