DAE 3D models in Unity are used to import assets with preserved animations, textures, and scene hierarchy, streamlining asset setup for developers.
- **Preserve data**: They retain parent-child relationships and embedded animations, so you don’t need to rework character or prop animations. - **Consistent content**: Ideal for game characters, interactive props, or VR/AR environments where asset consistency matters. - **Simplify setup**: Align the model’s scale and Y-up axis with Unity’s system to avoid extra adjustments.
