Autodesk Showcase™ is the gold standard for real-time photorealistic rendering. A simple and intuitive interface drives a common-sense workflow which in turn delivers stunning imagery. Multiple iterations can be viewed and critiqued on the fly. Development decisions can be made early. This avoids the delay of exploring dead-end-designs and the further delay and huge cost of producing physical prototypes.

Aurora, by HoloVis, is an enabler plugin designed exclusively for Showcase™ users to ensure maximum return from their existing software investment. HoloVis has used their collective experience in developing state-of-the-art immersive environments to deliver a seamless software plugin that unleashes the hidden power of Showcase™.

Showcase™ delivers genuinely stunning photorealistic imagery of very large datasets in real-time. The Aurora Showcase™ plugin enhances that imagery, when used with an immersive and tracked display setup, by delivering the Showcase™ solution in immersive 3D and with support for head-tracking systems – in real-time!
