Stands out in the autodesk_apps library for turning a secondary computer or mobile device into a window onto a heavy 3ds Max workstation, with hardware-accelerated streaming and a broad set of security options.
Splashtop Streamer lets you access resource- and processing-intensive 3ds Max workstations remotely, working as if you were sitting in front of the machine. Connections run from Windows, Mac, and Linux computers as well as iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and Chromebook devices.
On the performance side, it delivers 4K streaming at 40 fps and iMac Pro Retina 5K streaming at low latency, drawing on hardware acceleration from Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD through an optimized encoding and decoding engine. Multiple monitors connected to the workstation can be streamed as well. Security covers TLS 1.2 with AES 256-bit encryption, device authentication, and two-factor authentication, alongside SOC 2 Type 2, SOC 3, and GDPR compliance.
Personal apps are free for Android, Windows, Mac, Windows Phone, and Linux, while the iOS app is paid. Enterprise options add single sign-on, remote microphone, remote use of a stylus and HID devices like Wacom tablets, and scheduled remote access, and an on-prem deployment is available.
Splashtop Streamer -- Secure Remote 3D Graphics is best for 3ds Max users who need to reach resource-intensive workstations from another computer or mobile device.
Splashtop Streamer -- Secure Remote 3D Graphics is completely free to download and use.
Splashtop Streamer supports connections from Windows, Mac, and Linux computers, as well as iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and Chromebook mobile devices. The Streamer itself installs on the Windows, Mac, or Linux machine running your Autodesk apps, and you connect to it from any of those supported endpoints. Multiple monitors attached to the workstation can be streamed too, so a multi-display setup carries across to the device you are working from.
Splashtop Streamer uses TLS 1.2 with AES 256-bit encryption, device authentication, and two-factor authentication. Splashtop has achieved and maintains compliance with SOC 2 Type 2, SOC 3, and GDPR, and helps organizations meet standards such as HIPAA, PCI, and ISO 27001. These protections apply to remote connections between the device you are working from and the workstation running your 3ds Max session.
