Lab Computers

Our lab computers have the following software installed to get your XR experience started:

Software	Description
Unreal Engine 5	A powerful, real-time 3D creation tool developed by Epic Games. It is widely used for creating high-fidelity visuals in games, simulations, architectural visualizations, and virtual reality experiences. Features include advanced rendering technologies like Nanite and Lumen for detailed and dynamic environments, as well as robust tools for animation, physics, and real-time interactions.
Twinmotion	A visualization tool developed by Epic Games designed for architectural, construction, and urban planning projects. It enables users to create high-quality, immersive 3D visualizations quickly. Twinmotion offers an intuitive interface with drag-and-drop functionality, real-time rendering, and easy integration with BIM (Building Information Modeling) tools, making it ideal for producing photorealistic renderings and animations.
Unity	A versatile game engine and development platform known for its cross-platform capabilities. Unity is used to create 2D and 3D games, simulations, and interactive experiences across various devices and platforms. It features a comprehensive set of tools for game development, including a robust asset store, real-time rendering, physics simulation, and scripting support, making it a popular choice for both indie developers and large studios.
Blender 3D	An open-source 3D creation suite known for its comprehensive feature set and flexibility. Blender supports the entire 3D pipeline, including modeling, sculpting, animation, rendering, compositing, and simulation. It is used in various industries for game development, visual effects, animation, and architectural visualization. Blender is highly customizable and has a strong community contributing to its extensive set of plugins and tools.
Revit 2024	A Building Information Modeling (BIM) software developed by Autodesk specifically for architectural design, MEP (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing), and structural engineering. Revit 2024 allows users to design with parametric components, create detailed construction documents, and perform simulations and analyses. It supports collaboration through cloud-based services and integrates with other Autodesk products for a streamlined design and documentation process.
