Online 3D rendering

Online rendering is a process by which an image or 3D model is processed and transformed into a visual representation directly on the Internet, without the need for software installed on your computer.

• Free BIM viewers: usBIM;
• BIM software: Edificius;
• Rendering software: usBIM.codesign AI.

• Better understanding of the project
  The 3D visualisation of an IFC model is often conceived as a very bare representation because it is devoid of materials and textures, so rendering it makes it easier to understand the model, especially for non-experts.
• Effective communication
  The IFC file was created to be a communication file in the construction industry, so it is a file for exchange between architects, engineers, surveyors, builders, plant engineers, maintenance workers, etc.. The file is designed to be very light and at the same time capable of transferring all the geometric and informative information of each 3D BIM object it is composed of. The rendering of an IFC file also helps to communicate the project more effectively from a graphical point of view, increasing understanding between clients, customers and other stakeholders throughout the life of the construction.
• Quality control
  Rendering allows the identification of any errors or inconsistencies in the model. It can therefore also be useful in the openBIM process for visualisation activities with more detailed clash detection and design or construction issues.

Simply upload your project file (sketch, photo, 3D model or BIM) into the browser and let artificial intelligence process the rendering. The AI automatically optimises lighting, materials and styles for high-quality images in seconds.

With usBIM.codesign AI you don't just get an online rendering: you get an entire integrated ecosystem to manage, visualise, share and enhance your projects, all in the browser.

• Control the model before rendering
  usBIM allows you to open, explore and verify your 3D, BIM and 2D files in over 50 formats. You can check geometry, layers and materials before even generating the render, avoiding errors or inconsistencies.
• Share the render and collaborate in real time
  With usBIM.chat and usBIM.meet you can show the render to the client or team directly online, in a meeting or chat integrated into the project. Ideal for gathering feedback and making quick decisions.
• Merge complex models into one scene
  Do you have multiple files from different sources? With usBIM.federation you can combine them into one federated model for visualisation or rendering. Great for visualising large contexts, comparing versions and maintaining design consistency

usBIM.codesign AI supports over 50 formats, including 2D files (DWG, DXF), 3D (SKP, OBJ, FBX), BIM/openBIM (IFC, RVT), images (JPG, PNG), point clouds (LAS, PLY) and many more.

See all supported formats

No, you don't need any specific hardware or expensive graphics cards. All the calculation is done in the cloud, so you can create photorealistic renderings even with just a PC or tablet and an internet connection.

Yes, you can choose different rendering modes and customise architectural styles, natural or artificial lighting and materials in real time to achieve the desired effect.

With usBIM.codesign AI, the rendering is produced in seconds, allowing you to quickly visualise variations and share the results with clients and colleagues.

Everyone, from experienced professionals to beginners. The AI algorithm simplifies the process of creating renderings, eliminating the need for specific skills in graphics or modelling.
