See it and believe it with 3D visualization software purpose-built for architects, technical designers, and visualization specialists. With powerful and easy-to-use tools for modeling, animation, lighting, and rendering, Autodesk® VIZ software helps architects and designers visualize concepts and propel projects. With the creation of rich, visually informed contexts for their ideas, architects and designers can test theories and resolve issues, as well as create stunning marketing presentations. The ideal companion to Autodesk® AutoCAD®, AutoCAD Architecture, and Revit® software, VIZ enables the creation of intuitive, efficient, realistic experiences for you and your clients.
Features & Specifications
Autodesk VIZ software is the ideal 3D visualization companion tool for Autodesk customers. Based on the power of Autodesk® 3ds Max® software, VIZ enables architects and designers to create photorealistic 3D renderings and animated 3D imagery. Powerful DWG™ import capabilities enable Inventor™, AutoCAD®, AutoCAD® Architecture, and Revit® software users to transform imaginative designs into breathtaking visualizations. The newly integrated mental ray® 3.5 rendering engine includes radically simplified setup and a physically accurate sun/sky system for faster, more realistic renders. Dramatic performance improvements, integrated video and new learning tools make it easier than ever to pick up and communicate your vision.
