Real-time & photorealistic rendering with V-Ray 5 With Scan Essentials, you can better integrate project stages, from site surveys to design, construction, and then post-construction, supporting greater success on complex projects. Ultimately, the point cloud visual is the richest data of all, but the benefits it brings to your entire workflow are invaluable for example, increasing modeling accuracy and efficiency. Save modeling time by exporting contextual scan data directly into LayOut for professional documentation. Your context is ready for 3D primetime! Once you're done with your 3D model, it’s time to go to 2D with a direct LayOut integration.

Some features to help support your workflow include importing point clouds from drones, terrestrial scans, photogrammetry, lidar sensors, and mobile mapping modeling directly on point clouds comparison functionality to ensure your model is aligned with your point cloud alternate views as well as the ability to zoom on specific sections, and alter colors and transparency. Whether you’re retrofitting or delivering a new build, you don’t need to start from scratch. By giving you the tools to import, view, and model directly on point cloud data in SketchUp, it serves as a blueprint for a solid 3D foundation.

Similar to PreDesign and Add Location, Scan Essentials is, well, essential from the very start of your workflow. Welcome to the Studio family, V-Ray and Scan Essentials! Import point cloud data with Scan Essentials (Windows-only) We are excited to announce two features that will have your workflow more enriched and streamlined than ever before.

We've been busy evolving the Studio offering to make it more robust for Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) professionals.
