Introducing Merge Open Educational Objects A Partnership Program
Join Us to Shape the Future of 3D Exploration and Immersive Learning
With all the updates coming to the new Merge 3D platform, we’re excited to officially launch the Merge Open Educational Objects Partnership Program.
Are you an educational institution, museum, research organization, or scientific body looking to bring your high-quality 3D objects and simulations to the public in an easy, accessible way? The Merge Open Educational Objects Partnership Program may be for you!
A Streamlined Pipeline for Research and Education
For mission-driven institutions dedicated to public outreach, research preservation, and education, showcasing 3D objects in an accessible way can be a technical challenge. The Merge Open Educational Objects Partnership Program offers a professional, highly visible pipeline to share your collections with the world. Our platform also allows you to transform static digital objects into interactive, tactile experiences before sharing.
Why Partner with Merge?
- Frictionless Public Access: The general public will not need a Merge account to view your collections. When you share a link or a QR code, external users can instantly interact with your 3D models directly from their web browser.
- No Hardware Barriers: Users can inspect your models using standard 3D browser controls, or experience them via advanced interaction modes like 3D mode, hand tracking, head tracking, and the physical Merge Cube—using the devices they already own.
- Global K-12 Reach: Your collections will become available to a vast network of educators and students who utilize Merge daily to visualize concepts.
- Enhanced Multimedia Depth: Partners can utilize our Object Builder tools to enrich 3D models with descriptive text, audio annotations, video labels, and imagery, providing deep contextual knowledge to every viewer.

Mission-Driven Outcomes: Broadening Public Impact
Preserving history and advancing public education is a collective endeavor. The Merge 3D Open Educational Partnership Program is designed to work alongside your institution mission and help provide access to your collections to the general public. By integrating your 3D models into our web-based platform, we help extend the reach of your vital work. This partnership offers a seamless way to advance your public education goals, allowing more of your 3D content to actively inspire and educate others.
Who We Are Looking For
We are seeking partnerships with organizations that possess high-quality 3D objects, 3D scans or simulations aligned with global educational themes, including:
- Earth and Space Sciences: Climate data, geological specimens, and astronomical models.
- Life Sciences and Medicine: Anatomical models, botanical structures, and molecular visualizations.
- History and Anthropology: Digitized historical artifacts, archeological finds, and cultural keepsakes.
- Engineering, Math and Design: Historic innovations, architectural structures, geometric concepts or mathematical representations.
- And more
