What is AccuRender?
AccuRender creates stunning, life-like images from your
3-D models inside AutoCAD R14 and 2000, Architectural
Desktop, Mechanical Desktop, Revit, or Rhino.
AccuRender is the only renderer that uses raytracing and
radiosity technologies to create high quality,
photorealistic, still, panorama, and animation image
files.
Image quality
AccuRender brings you new technology with the highest
image quality, accuracy, speed, and ease-of-use
available today. With AccuRender, you can apply
materials and lights to your models.
AccuRender provides accurate indirect lighting
calculation, soft shadows, color bleeding, and lighting
analysis tools. Raytracing provides accurate reflection,
refraction, caustics, shadows, and more to create
unrivaled realism.
Fast and efficient
AccuRender is faster than other radiosity and raytrace
renderers. AccuRender 3 supports multiprocessors and
background processing. Scenes in AccuRender can be set
up in one tenth the time needed for most other
renderers.
Unlike other renderers, AccuRender can be interrupted
while processing to revise material assignments or
lighting. You are not forced to wait for the entire
process to complete before you can view your image. With
AccuRender you work smarter and more efficiently.
Easy to use
With AccuRender you don't need to be a professional
renderer or a lighting engineer to get realistic results
quickly. Physically-based light source intensities are
specified in watts, lumens, or candelas throughout.
AccuRender materials are assigned to layers or objects.
No other steps are needed.
Affordable
AccuRender costs far less than any other product that
can create images of this quality.
Because you work in your modeling application, learning
cost is minimal.
Hardware requirements are the same as your modeling
application.
Virtual reality is completely interactive viewing of
fully rendered models, even on a basic PC or across the
Internet.
Runs inside
With other radiosity-based renderers, if you change your
model, you start over and reapply materials and
lighting. With AccuRender, everything is saved with the
model, and any changes to the model can be immediately
rendered in AccuRender. You never need to start over.
AccuRender extends the capabilities of the modeling
software you are comfortable and familiar with.
Extensive libraries
Over 5,000 materials, 500 plants, and 300 light fixtures
are included with AccuRender.
Additionally, AccuRender provides a materials editor so
you can create your own specialized materials from
bitmaps or procedural patterns.
Procedural materials
Most renderers rely entirely on bitmap materials that
must be tediously "mapped" on to each object. AccuRender
supports bitmap and procedural materials like marble,
granite, tile, and wood that can be assigned to objects,
blocks, or layers.
Procedural materials penetrate through the part instead
of being "wrapped" around it. A wood beam will show a
rift sawn grain pattern on the sides and end grain on
the end. The growth rings penetrate through the beam
like real wood instead of being wrapped around it like
shelf paper.
