Facebook and Instagram users who see a 3D ad while browsing on their desktop or phone can interact with an image of a handbag, for instance, and move the item around to view it from all angles, Reuters reports.
Now, brands can use VNTANA to easily upload and convert the files into ads without technical expertise working with 3D images.
