A quick post to share a rendered image I created, as part of a public VR experience for an urban street renewal project, that made it onto the company calendar juxtaposed the completed project.

Notice, in the two images above, how the shadows match... in our rendering software we are able to specify the location on Earth, as well as the month, day and time. Also, we hired a local photography, Jeff Frey, to take photos of each existing building which where then applied to an extruded solid within the 3D model.

Here is a video I created for this project, from an Autodesk Revit model using Enscape, back in 2018...
Here is another video highlighting how the project was used for VR, which I helped facilitate at a public meeting...
Here is one more video showing the complex underground utilities modeled in AutoCAD Civil 3D. We also used NavisWorks for clash detection...
NVIDIA created a blog post and customer cusses story on this project.
Fun stuff!

I also write blog posts for Enscape - a new paradigm in rendering, animation and VR for AEC.

Here are a few more images from the project, other than the first one, all created in 2017...
This first image is slightly different from the image in the calendar as I added a photosphere (aka skybox) to include the taller buildings beyond.
Fun stuff!
