Found out about this wonderful website known as Sketchfab which you can view the 3d models in a 3d live space. It isn’t something exactly new but the some of the models on Sketchfab are very detailed because they are using photogrammetry to scan real objects into 3d models.
In the past I will be using pictures from the internet to help with my modelling but sketchfab just allows me to see the reference in 3d space. It is just much better than looking at flat 2d images. There’s also the option to view in VR which i will try it later on.
For example this cinema movie projector – https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/cinema-movie-projector-ap5-1961-6ea63a63e75149fcaea83026451bf479
There’s no way i can find something like this in real life but now i can easily see it in all perspective of this object on sketchfab.
