What is 3D visualization?

3D visualization is the process of creating graphics and rendering designs using 3D software. Many industries benefit from 3D visualization ranging from architecture, film, and games, to engineering and manufacturing. A number of products and visions are created in 3D visualization prior to execution, saving both time and costs for producers, manufacturers and customers.

Where is 3D visualization used?

Architecture and interior design

Customers these days are accustomed to seeing final designs at early stages. 3D visualization provides the ability to show interior and exterior designs, layout, lighting, texture, and even geography, prior to development.

Product design and manufacturing

3D visualization improves the manufacturing process by keeping up with design changes and evolving ideas. Engineers and production teams work together to customize and realize concepts at any scale, and iterate faster on designs.
