Technologies – 3D rendering and 3D visualization

/in , , /by

Today computer graphics technologies, in particular, 3D visualization, are becoming more and more in demand. With the help of 3D modeling, visualization, and prototyping, you can study the model of the object in detail, make the necessary changes, evaluate the ergonomics and functionality, change the design of a product, create photo-realistic images, and more.
You have surely faced with a huge number of proposals for 3D modeling and visualization. But do not forget that the most part of these companies is newcomers who only master the direction of 3D technologies.

Why do we say that it’s better to work with us? Because we have been working in this field for several years now and we are engaged in 3D modeling, visualization, and prototyping. Over the years of work in the company Vrender, a team of real experts and professionals has formed. We guarantee you the quality and reliability of the services we provide.

Stages of 3D visualization

process of visualization

Application of 3D visualization

3D visualization is most often used for demonstration purposes at various exhibitions, presentations, and conferences. Three-dimensional visualization allows you to see the original design idea, the future project, any non-existent objects, or existing ones, but invisible to us. It allows demonstrating the novelties of various products visually – from foods and packaging to new technologies.

3D visualization is also used in:

• printed advertising products

• the creation of videos

• architecture

• industry

• scientific and educational projects

• online stores

• the development of interior and exterior design, etc.

Stages of 3D visualization. 3D rendering

3D visualization is closely related to 3D modeling because the 3D model will be build based on an image in three-dimensional space. If you do not use 3D product model and programs for 3D visualization and you will only want to create an image of the product with the help of graphic editors, then it will be a usual two-dimensional visualization.

The process of visualization occurs in several stages:

• Creation of 3D model of an object

• Creation of an environmental scene around an object

• Texturing

• Adjusting the correct lighting

• Setting the camera, choosing a good angle

• Adjusting effects

• 3D rendering

Rendering is one of the constituent parts of visualization. Rendering allows receiving the finished image of a three-dimensional model in a “flat” version.
Depending on the complexity of the object and the desired quality of the images, rendering can last from a few minutes to dozens of hours. Also, its speed is affected by the power of the computer – rendering can take up to a few days on an old and weak computer.
For imaging, various 3D programs are used. Many of them have a rendering function, and some will require additional software to be installed.

Recommendations for choosing a computer for 3d Rendering in 2017

CPU selection for 3D visualization

Multi-core processor: the more cores, the better. From Intel processors, it is a family of Core i7:

I7 7700K I7 6800K I7 6850K I7 6900K I7 6950X
Technical processor 14 nm 14 nm 14 nm 14 nm 14 nm

From AMD processors, it is Ryzen 5 and 7:

CPU for 3D visualization

The comparison shows that the AMD processor for the same money is faster in the rendering in 1.5 times! This does not mean that the Ryzen 7 processors are the best in everything. In single-streamed tasks, they give the same performance or worse at the same frequencies. But in 3D visualization, in the parameter of combining performance on one price unit, they go far ahead.

Video card for rendering

In some cases, rendering using the video card works much faster than the one done by the CPU. GPU rendering supports iRay, V-Ray RT, Cycles in Blender, and other visualizers.

Here, the two main competitors are AMD and NVIDIA again. The main difference is in the supported technologies as NVIDIA video cards use CUDA, while AMD video cards – OpenGL. So it always makes sense to find out in advance what exactly you will use. For example, VRay help section tells about the choice clearly: “It is highly recommended to use the CUDA engine on nVidia GPUs.”

I have the impression that there are fewer problems with NVIDIA video cards, so I propose to choose among them. The main criterion, besides the price, of course, is the number of CUDA cores – the more the better. There is no sense to overpay for a professional card for rendering – you will not get a real gain in the speed of rendering but you will lose a lot of money.

RAM

The standard memory is DDR4, the bigger volume the better. 8 Gb is the absolute minimum, while 16 Gb is optimally for the beginning. Further quality is up to taste and purse. In severe cases, it makes sense to add up to 32 Gb or more.

Hard Drive and SSD

They do not directly affect the rendering speed. I propose the following options:

  • HDD – SATA-III, 7200, cash – the more the better; volume is 1 Tb.
  • SSD – volume is 256 Gb and more. The speed of work is clearly defined by the capabilities of your purse.

Motherboard

It is selected strictly under the processor taking into account the dimensions of the case, the necessary number of any connectors like USB, sATA, for memory modules and so on. It is difficult to give any specific recommendations in advance.
