  • The Envision beta will be available in November, providing a sneak peek at Autodesk University in San Diego.

The Chaos booth at this year’s Autodesk University in San Diego is bustling with excitement. And it’s not just because of the swag.

A new archviz tool, designed specifically for 3D assembly and advanced animation has been revealed. Chaos Envision.

We’ve been working on this very exciting project for some time now, and AU is getting a sneak peek into what’s coming when the beta goes live this November.

Envision is a powerful, independent 3D visualization solution for architectural visualizers and designers needing photorealistic, real-time ray tracing, and advanced animation. Perfect for handling large, complex scenes, it enables you to effortlessly create high-quality animated visualizations from your design projects.

One thing that AU booth visitors are particularly excited about is the fact that Envision provides architectural designers with the possibility of adding super-realistic moving humans and crowds to their animations in just a few clicks.

Enscape, V-Ray, and Corona users can export their work to Envision and begin where they left off from ten different creation tools. Scenes remain real-time, without any data preparation, even as scenes grow into great size. From here, any number of design variations can be explored, presented, and animated between for easy cinematic animation possibilities.

If you’re at AU this week, stop by booth #654 to see it in action.

The Envision beta will be available soon. Join the beta and sign up for updates here.
