ABVENT Presents ARTLANTIS R

One click radiosity

Paris, France, 12 July 2005 -- Architects, interior designers, space managers, landscape designers, are about to discover their best working tool. Artlantis R, Artlantis Render�s worthy successor, revolutionizes the CAD world by its surprising capacities in terms of computing speed, rendering quality, low price, and most of all, by its user friendliness completely unique!

Simplicity of creation and liberty of action Each projected view, each perspective can be memorized (then stored in a list created by the user) and recalculated independently according to all of the parameters that make up its environment (geographical positioning, camera placement, focal distance, light sources, date and time, foreground and background etc.).

Exceptional display capacity for incredibly large scenes The SDA (selective display accelerator) allows, with the OpenGL display booster, the interactive handling of scenes that can reach several millions of polygons, and selects for you the most significant faces to display so you can manage interactively the models.

Innovating exchange process for a simplified use Thanks to its new Postcard function, Artlantis R enables you to save a considerable time by offering you the possibility to use any shaders from any project, it�s just like creating your own personal pallet. The shaders can be re-used anytime by a simple drag-and-drop, and their parameters can be easily memorized in a JPEG file.

An astonishing objects manager for an incomparable scene layout The objects can be handle either in 3D or 2D, their graphic control can depend on different scene-specific factors (hierarchy, catchpoint, season�). The vegetation, for example, changes depending on the season, just like in the real world. All objects can be integrated in a scene by a simple drag and drop process

Easy great quality radiosity. The FastRadiosity engine and the new Raybooster raytracing calculator, calculate, even in the preview window, at an incomparable speed, the light dispersion and bring high quality rendering and realism to the most sophisticated scenes.
