Envisioneer Review

Visualize Designs Using Virtual Reality Capabilities

Visualization is among the reliable and innovative features of Envisioneer. The platform directly integrates with virtual reality technologies which include Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. As a result, designers, builders, and homeowners will be able to view what the designs will look like once constructed in a 3D environment that provides them with an immersive and stunning experience.

So how does this virtual reality capability work? Users simply need to design and build their models within the platform. Once they’re done constructing their models, they can then have their clients put on the virtual reality helmet or headset from Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. After the virtual reality mode is activated, clients will be able to visualize a virtual reality showroom.

As users apply changes to their designs and make sure that they meet the expectations and requirements laid out by their clients, the virtual reality showroom is also updated accordingly. This way, homeowners can pinpoint any issues in the designs and suggest improvements, and at the same time, actively involve themselves in the purchasing process early.

Powerful Building Wizards For Homeowners And Hobbyists

Envisioneer also comes with powerful building wizards that guide users as they explore different interior design and decorating concepts. Ideal for homeowners and hobbyists, these wizards are available in Envisioneer’s 3D software which is built for personal use. Known as Personal Architect, this solution streamlines the designing and creation of new spaces such as kitchen, bathroom, and deck.

Achieve Accuracy and Increase Productivity

Design professionals need to precisely deliver the design concepts that their clients are expecting. This means that everything should be accurate, and this is very important for users and clients that are working on projects with a limited budget. However, the desire to attain accuracy should not compromise productivity.  Thus, Envisioneer ensures that design professionals are able to produce construction documents accurately and quickly.

Generate Drawing Details Fast

With Envisioneer, design professionals can immediately extract drawing information and details from the models they created which include elevations, sections, and more. In addition, the platform has a built-in library of drawing and design details which they can customize. If they want to create their own library of details or upload libraries from multiple sources, Envisioneer also allows them to do that. Because of this, their designs can be reviewed and approved by homeowners and other stakeholders much faster.

3D Digital Material Takeoff

Estimating is another innovative feature available in Envisioneer. With this feature, builders and remodelers can come up with complete material lists from their models. Alongside with these material lists, they can also quickly generate cut lists, pricing details, and measurements. Additionally, the platform delivers a 3D takeoff feature which enables them to spot estimation mistakes as early as possible. This way, their projects will be free from costly construction errors, helping them establish stronger client relationships.

Check Framing Methods On-Site Against BIM Models

Envisioneer can also automatically generate walls, floors, and roof framing based on purchased lengths as users create models within the platform. Because of this, they will be able to check whether the framing methods they are applying on-site are consistent with their models. If there are conflicts, they can easily identify them, preventing waste of time, material, and money.

Seamless Integration With Business Tools

To wrap it up, the 3D building information modeling solution can seamlessly work with third-party business applications such as POS systems and accounting tools. For example, information related to material shipments are instantly imported into an existing POS system, eliminating the need for entering data twice.
