Abvent launches iVisit 3D for Autodesk 360 Rendering

Based on the success of its earlier launch of iVisit 3D for Artlantis Studio, Abvent has announced the public beta release of iVisit 3D for Autodesk 360 Rendering. iVisit 3D converts Revit panoramas rendered with Autodesk 360 Rendering into full, 3D presentations. iVisit 3D's real-time preview completes the panoramas with building level plans and easily produces interactive, multi-node panoramas for viewing on websites and iOS or Android mobile devices. 

Create panoramas and nodes

Users connect to their Autodesk 360 account and launch the rendering calculation in the cloud. The different camera viewpoints are calculated as Panorama images. Users create large, vertical images with six different views of a project. Panorama calculations are launched on Autodesk 360 Rendering; when it's done, they are simply downloaded to a computer from Autodesk 360 Rendering Gallery. iVisit 3D works on both Mac and PC. Users simply import their panoramas and, if necessary, the plan views of the project. The panoramas are linked together and positioned on the plan views. The links created in this step will facilitate the navigation between nodes in the final iVisit 3D panorama.

On a website or on mobile devices

Once the panoramas are linked together and the navigation has been tested, users simply calculate the final iVisit 3D Panoramas in both HTML and PNO formats. HTML allows users to upload their panorama to a website, while the PNO format allows users to view their panorama on an iOS or Androïd mobile device. The PNO file can be transferred to a tablet or smartphone through a variety of ways using Dropbox, box.com and iTunes.

About iVisit 3D 

iVisit 3D is an innovative and easy way to present panoramas of your projects online or on an iOS or Android device. iVisit 3D uses only still images and not a real 3D model or animation, making the calculations and navigation very fast. Developed especially for architects and designers, iVisit 3D allows users to view and share a project by navigating between viewpoints on the floor plan, in a palette of thumbnail preview images, or directly within the 3D views.
