AutoDesSys to Preview BonZai 3D Modeler at AIA
 BOSTON,
MA, (AIA Convention) May 14, 2008 - AutoDesSys is pleased to preview BonZai
3D at AIA 2008 National
Convention and Design Exposition, from May 15-17, booth 22139.
 BonZai
3D is a new 3D modeler developed to fill in the demand for a quick, easy,
simple but, most importantly, geometrically robust approach to 3D. A
response to those who wish to express their thoughts graphically in 3D, on
the fly, without too much hassle, and then be able to advance to the next
level of detailed solid modeling and production, if they wish to do so.
In many ways, BonZai is an offspring of form•Z. At the same time, it is a
different tool and represents a fresh approach to 3D modeling. The BonZai
tools have resulted from experiences, experiments, research, and user input
of the past 15 years. Its goal is to support the conceptual and sketching
stages of design with utmost ease, but also the production of accurate and
robust models that can be used for construction drawings, can be smoothly
rendered, animated, and fabricated (i.e. printed in 3D). All this and more
at an affordable price.
You can think of form•Z as the Swiss army knife of 3D modeling and BonZai
as a pen knife you carry around to depend on for quick solutions to all
kinds of immediate needs.
Anatomy of Bonzai
BonZai is the next generation of ease of use, combined with underlying
solid modeling, that leads to effective workflow that minimizes input effort
while maximizing productivity. It offers all the basic tools a designer
needs to present one’s ideas in a 3D representation. It is built on form•Z’s
trademark strengths that include solids and nurbs, multi-platform support,
reliable Booleans, import/export file translators, and above all its solid
reputation for the mark of excellence in 3D.
Some of the individual features in BonZai are:
- Fluid, powerful, and smart interface.
- All the classic modeling tools (extrusions, sweeps, transformations,
etc.)
- Real time Booleans
- NURBS curves and surfaces
- Smart 3D drawing
- Dynamic graphic editing
- Push/Pull tool for easy sculpting and shape editing
- Advanced OpenGL rendering with shadows, transparencies, and textures
- Graphic texture map editing
- Over 200 free materials (texture maps)
- Content library for trees, furniture, entourage elements
- Support of 3D Warehouse
- Google Earth and SketchUp file compatibility
- Over 30 export/import formats for easy inter-operability
- Embedded video tutorials
What is presented at AIA 2008 - BOOTH #22139 - is a sneak preview of
what’s to come in the summer of 2008. AutoDesSys expects to start public
Beta testing soon.
