At the beginning of 2024, Synthesis was faced with a significant challenge. After being their customer for nearly a decade, Unity's business practices and recent decisions made using their engine an unaffordable and futile option for Synthesis. Instead, we have decided to not only severe our connection with Unity entirely, but also capitalize on this unique opportunity. Therefore, we are immensely proud to present:

Fission

Fission is Synthesis' web-based platform for real-time robotics simulation, targeted for FIRST® robotics students competing in FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC) and FIRST® Tech Challenge (FTC).

Closed Beta

Current Features

This is a beta of a complete rewrite, so v7 will be missing a few features from v6. That being said, here is what we have currently in the beta:

  • Robot / Field spawning
  • Local importing
  • Autodesk Platform Services integration (access your exports from anywhere)
  • Arcade Drive
  • Controllable hinges/arms
  • Controllable sliders/elevators
  • Input customization
  • Input control schemes
  • Multiple robot control
  • Game piece manipulation
  • Game piece scoring
  • Simple preferences

Fusion

We've release a significant update to the Fusion exporter in order to effectively support Fission. See download below and see our website for instructions on installation.

Our Progress

Here is a summary of all the teams hard work, completely rewriting Synthesis:
