The following design solutions are currently supported: With the help of a path-tracing procedure and physically based material models, the global illumination can be visualized realistically. The respective CAD model is used, for example, to derive a virtual reality simulation.Įnscape uses OpenGL 4.4 and Vulkan and provides photorealistic representations of the underlying CAD models. A real-time method is applied to achieve higher iteration speeds at the planning project by reducing waiting times. The main focus of Enscape lies in the calculation of realistic visualizations of architecture with low operating complexity.

In 2022, Enscape's developer Enscape GmbH merged with Chaos, developer of competing rendering software V-Ray. It is mainly used in the architecture, engineering, and construction fields and is developed and maintained by Enscape GmbH, founded in 2013 and based in Karlsruhe, Germany with an office in New York, United States. Prior to the workshop we will share a survey link where you can request an NFR or trial version of the three products.Enscape is a commercial real-time rendering and virtual reality plugin. They need Rhino (Rhino 7 (7.20 or higher) installed and also the plugins Enscape (version 3.4) and V-Ray (version 6) installed. The participants must bring their own laptop. The second day will focus on a deep dive in V-Ray and will end the workshop with a tips and tricks part with our experts. Then, we will use the camera, which will bring us to the creation of stunning renderings and videos. We will showcase how to use and create materials and set up light scenes to achieve more effects. After finishing the design, we will cover the basics of visualization with our project with the help of Enscape and V-Ray.

While creating the 3D model, we will continuously use real-time rendering with Enscape to understand our design better and explore ways to communicate the design. It is recommended that you know the basics in Rhino so we can focus on advanced topics. The workshop will start the first day with modeling exercises in Rhino.
