Create Lifelike Renderings with Autodesk Inventor Studio
One of the powerful capabilities of 3D design software such as Autodesk Inventor is support for
creation of 3D images of proposed designs. When you can present intuitive renderings of design
ideas before any prototyping or production takes place, you save costs and time to refine concepts
to meet customers’ approval.
Now Autodesk Inventor 10 lets you create high-quality, photorealistic renderings and animations
within the Autodesk Inventor design environment. New, special tools help you define lighting,
camera angles, animation parameters and background style to make images that best present your
ideas.
Here’s how to create a simple rendering, using the SUSPENSION.IAM model of a vehicle’s
suspension assembly, found in the Inventor Samples catalog (figure 1).
