A computing device is used for creating a dimensional model of at least a portion of a product, the dimensional model including a range of possible conditions with respect to at least one component in the product. The dimensional model is used to create a set of geometries for the product, a geometry being a representation of at least a portion of the product, wherein each of the geometries corresponds to one or more of the conditions. A display is provided of a first one of the geometries, and then, upon receiving an input requesting a second one of the geometries, a display is provided of the requested second one of the geometries.

Immersive dimensional variation

A virtual environment, including at least one virtual element representing a component of an item is generated. The virtual environment is mapped to a physical environment that includes a physical mockup of at least a subset of the item. The virtual environment is provided to a display. The at least one virtual element is displayed in relation to the physical element according to the mapping.
