Due to a deadline, we gave up after an hour or two of troubleshooting. If anyone has experience in Autodesk LIVE, comment below. Even with a single room model we consistently froze when importing and "unpacking" the model in LIVE. We wanted to try out Autodesk LIVE with the HTC Vive but we could never get it to actually work.
ENSCAPE REVIT PIRATEBAYS SOFTWARE
It appears to be a blend between a real-time rendering software (like Lumion or Artlantis) and the old "Autodesk Showcase". For this project, we wanted to be able to walk through the space so that ruled out A360.Īutodesk's new "LIVE" software looks extremely promising. In fact, it is very easy to make a "stationary" 360 degree panorama rendering for Google Cardboard or other VR platforms. If you are someone who has a quick and efficient workflow you use to get your Revit models into one of the game engines mentioned above it may be worth your effort.Īutodesk's 360 Rendering for Revit has always been great to me. For that reason, I didn't even start down this road. Unfortunately, it takes quite a bit of effort to get your Revit models into these programs to begin with. Most, if not all, of the gaming engines are VR compatible now. if you want to add one to the list with your thoughts, please comment below ). Additionally, this is not a list of every VR software out there. I am not fully reviewing each piece of software stand-alone. (The following summaries are based on the software's ability to simply take a Revit model and display it in virtual reality.
The goal of this project was to fin a "one-click" solution to viewing models on the Vive. Here are some brief summaries of the software I tried to connect the Vive and our Revit model. Similar to the VR headsets, I tried quite a few add-ins and standalone software for viewing Revit models on the HTC Vive. Now what about using it with my Revit models? Great, so now you went out and bought an HTC Vive because of The Revit Kid. Without trying to sounds negative, the Oculus Rift took a little more effort to get up and running for me. This could be due to Steam VR (the backend platform the Vive uses), but we had the Vive up and running less than 20 minutes after opening the box. The answer is the simplicity of use and setup. As of right now, the Vive has taken the lead in my book. I know, it's more "AR"), and the HTC Vive. I've tried the Oculus Rift, Google Cardboard, Samsung Gear, Microsoft Halolens (yeah. Over the last two years or so I have been dabbling in the world of virtual reality.

** Full disclosure, this is a real project with real clients and I have kept the project name, clients, and their faces anonymous for this post (because I did not ask every single person who appears in a photo for their permission).** Continue reading to hear about the success story and my thoughts on the aforementioned technologies (including a breakdown of the hardware and software we used). More specifically, with Revit, the HTC Vive, and Enscape 3D. Today, I wanted to talk about a recent real-world experience with VR. is "cool, but how can I use it in the 'real-world'"? The first thing you hear with something like AR, VR, Dynamo, etc. Initially, emerging technologies can battle with the concept of pragmatism. As you can imagine, VR has come a long way since that post. My first personal experience with VR was using Google Cardboard over two years ago. I know, because I have also been saturated with everything "VR". I know every single person who reads this blog is familiar with the explosion of Virtual Reality (VR) over the last few years.
