| Promoted Post --- Video: ImmersaCAD CEO Lee Martin's interview with Local Channel 8 News WVLT about vCAD | Video courtesy of WVLT, Knoxville, TN vCAD for Pre-Built Spaces: Convert Your CAD File to VR on a Smartphone | Share Viewing in Realtime Imagine 'walking around' a space in Virtual Reality (VR) that does not yet exist. With the vCAD CAD-to-VR conversion and publishing service, you can easily, quickly and affordably convert most CAD files to VR viewing experiences on a smartphone using the vCAD app (iOS, Android). The smartphone gets paired with any Google Cardboard VR Viewer. Instead of reviewing blue-prints or a 2-dimensional floor plan, a client can visualize the interior and exterior of a space in VR and give the architect or designer immediate feedback. Additionally, with Spectator mode, the client could be in Athens, Georgia and the architect in Athens, Greece and as the client views the space in VR, the architect sees - on his computer - exactly what the client is looking at: real-time collaboration from two different locations. Plus, with One-Touch Navigation, movement within a vCAD created VR model is continuous and silky smooth: no jumping from point-to-point and no fade-to-black transitions. Getting Started VIEWING a VR Experience of a Pre-Built Space is as Easy as 1-2-3 1. Download the vCAD free app (iOS, Android) 2. Go to the vCAD VR Gallery 3. View any of the examples in the vCAD app with One-Touch Navigation Getting Started CREATING a VR Experience of a Pre-Built Space is as Easy as 1-2-3 1. Set up a vCAD cloud account 2. CAD to VR: Upload your CAD file to the vCAD cloud | CAD file formats supported: | Revit | SKP 2014 | OBJ | FBX | FBX - Tilt Brush 3. Within minutes, download the VR model to your smartphone to view the model in VR vCAD File Format Guide ✓ Revit - export as RVT or FBX ✓ Sketchup - export as SKP 2014 or FBX ✓ 2020 Spaces Fusion, export as a .SKP 2014 or .OBJ ✓ Matterport – export as OBJ ✓ Maya – export as FBX ✓ Rhino – export as FBX ✓ Solidworks –export as OBJ ✓ Tilt Brush – export as FBX And, the vCAD viewing experience does not require tethers or expensive equipment to buy. With vCAD, now every architect, space planner, engineer or artist can quickly, easily and affordably immerse their clients into their designs. VR models can be easily shared privately or publicly. Plus, give live presentations at conferences, meetings and remotely with the vCAD Spectator mode within the vCAD cloud account. Spectator mode is the WebGL platform as demonstrated in the realtime background video from the WVLT interview shown above. For tech notes, please see the vCAD Immersifier and Spectator Guidelines.

| Hello all, One of our users, Paul F. Aubin, was interviewed on the podcast "BIM Thoughts". Lately, their discussion have been about VR and Paul used it as an opportunity to showcase how he's using vCAD. It's a great product demo if you'd like to see how some other users are adopting vCAD as their solution to interact with and distribute their CAD files to a webpage or mobile device. http://bimthoughts.com/e72/ A quick note on Paul, if you visit vCAD's "Architects and Builders" channel within the app you find his models "Baptistry" and "Palazzo dei Priori". Both are laser scans of existing buildings in Volterra, Italy. Also, I feel it is important to mention that Paul is not compensated by vCAD for his endorsement. He's used a lot of competing products. He advocates for us because he loves our continuous navigation and thinks we've got one of the simplest CAD to VR conversions available. Enjoy the video and let me know if you'd like any additional information. -Jon |
