Real-time rendering is the process in which 3D content is instantaneously rendered, allowing users to see fully detailed virtual models in real-time. The AEC industry is already leveraging the power of real-time rendering tools and software to collaborate virtually and showcase designs to clients and stakeholders. In this course, we’ll look at use cases in the industry to explore how real-time technology tools are being leveraged to communicate ideas, design and build in real time, and even link up to sensors to create fully functioning digital twins in order to support real-time decision making.
