Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for intelligently distributing virtual objects within a 3D virtual space using a voxel-based heat map. The approach is highly flexible and scalable, and a designer may guide the placement of virtual objects using parameters that reference the voxel-based heat map. This technique affords designers expansive creative control over a wide-array of scenarios that involve placing a virtual object into a virtual 3D space.
