Technology enables users to focus on design rather than techniques

1 February 2002

The 3D modelling, rendering, and animation tool, Autodesk VIZ 4 (previously known as 3D Studio VIZ), now has easy-to-implement lighting simulation capabilities, enabling designers to generate richer, more compelling images and more accurately convey design intent under different lighting conditions.
Unlike previous versions, the new software fully integrates a new generation of global illumination rendering technology and physically based lighting within the application.
With physically based lighting, designers can position lighting fixtures in their scenes as they would in the real world, and evaluate the lighting effects of a given design both visually and quantitatively. In addition, by using Autodesk's I-drop technology, users can drag virtual lighting fixtures directly from manufacturers' websites into their scenes.
