Features

Features in VRED 3D product visualization and virtual prototyping software let you create compelling product presentations, design reviews, and virtual prototypes in real time.

Data preparation and navigation

• Camera and navigation (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Interface improvements and visibility in the render view are among the many enhancements to the Camera function.
• Data preparation and scene handling (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – UV Editor improvements include scale checker texture to adjust and better spot distorted areas.
• Navigation in a scene – Navigate more easily within a VRED scene and control which objects to select.
  Enhanced geometry behavior – Work more easily with the geometry, promote geometry simply, and communicate your designs more effectively.
• File I/O and interoperability (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Get support for Alias Variants and Transform Pivots support in VRED with enhancements to the Alias wire import capability.
• Import Alias layer structure – Wire files from Alias industrial design software are imported with the corresponding layer and tagging information.

Visual setup

• Light (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Improvements to lighting within VRED scenes, as well as support for more functionality in OpenGL mode.
  Human-machine interface (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Visualize HTML 5 content in a VRED scene, including immersive validation of a user HMI design in 3D.
• Pre-rendering shadows into geometry – Bake light shadows into geometry to get a more natural view of the object with fewer calculations.
  Subsurface scattering (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Accurately simulate the translucent behaviors of materials such as skin, milk, wax, and plastic.
• Lens flares (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Create a lens flare effect for your lights in ray tracing and OpenGL modes.
  Fog effect in VRED (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Create an atmospheric fog effect in your scene, with controls for color, falloff, and density.
• Realistic materials – Use a wide range of photorealistic automotive virtual prototyping materials such as glass, car paint, and metal.
• Powerful lighting options – Easily control brightness using HDR lighting to illuminate an entire scene with a high-dynamic-range picture.
• Physical camera setting – The camera module’s physical parameters make elaborate post-processing unnecessary.
  Measured materials (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Visualize realistic behavior based on captured material data with measured materials.
• Displacement mapping – Efficiently simulate highly detailed surface structure based on texture information in real time.
• Layered glass material – Single-sided objects can have a simulated thickness to achieve the appropriate index of refraction (IOR).

Presentation

• Transform variants (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Add multiple transforms as variants to Scenegraph nodes to reduce scene size and memory usage.
• Virtual reality interaction (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Get a more natural look and feel in your VR environment with fully rigged and posable hands and preset gestures in VRED.
• Animation module – Create keyframe animations in real time. Simulate motion sequences and produce moving images.
• Variants and Variant Sets – Present different configurations of your 3D model using Variants and VariantSets.
• Support for new HMD (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – In addition to our VR Oculus Rift and HTC Vive support, VRED offers extended support for head-mounted displays.
• Virtual reality enhancements (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Improvements include omnidirectional stereo render for 360-degree style images for mobile and web VR.
• VRED app (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Remotely control a VRED scene from your mobile device when connected to the Internet.
• Enhancements in materials – Improved metallic car paint options allow for more realistic automotive virtual prototyping.

Evaluation Workflows

• Clipping module – Use 3D clipping on digital data, polygons, and even native NURBS data.
• Annotations (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Attach annotations directly to a 3D model during an interactive review.
• Alias curvature shader (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Use the same curvature shader evaluation mode available in Alias industrial design software.
• Visual simulation (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Visual simulation features help you better understand lighting distribution inside a scene.

Rendering

• Layer module (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Set material override in the Render Layer module. Store render passes in pre-composed layered EXR and PSD files.
• Render passes and render layer – For additional post-processing, export your render passes for further adaptations in image processing software.
• Better results with fewer cycles – Improve visual quality for interior scenes with fewer overall samples with a noise reduction tool for rendering.
• Multiple rendering modes – Rendering modes deliver various levels of display quality and speed. Switch between OpenGL and ray tracing mode.
• Cluster Manager (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Organize how multiple users share a cluster, schedule cluster ray tracing, and manage jobs.
• Sequencer (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Organize complex batch processes and execute them sequentially, on a single machine or in a CPU cluster environment.
• TrueNURBS (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Build NURBS topology or rebuild an existing one. With TrueNURBS, you can load native NURBS data from a CAD model.
• Spectral rendering (VRED PROFESSIONAL ONLY) – Achieve color correctness and capture realistic dispersion effects with wavelength-based spectral rendering.
