What if I told you by clicking a button in SOLIDWORKS Visualize<\/strong><\/a>, you could instantly render 10x faster? Would your world change? What you would do with all that extra time given back to your life? Would you actually believe me?!?<\/p>\n

Well I\u2019m proud to say this is not a dream and very much a reality. A brand new super-feature is coming to SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2018 SP3! It\u2019s called the AI (Artificial Intelligence) Denoiser.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Created by the innovative folks at NVIDIA, the AI Denoiser was born from machine learning and artificial intelligence, studying thousands of images and sample project files. This AI Denoiser allows Visualize to anticipate and magically eliminate noise in your scene. What does this mean? You can expect the same photo-quality results 10x faster<\/strong>!! Not only does it help your final renders finish 10x faster, you can also enjoy this dramatic speed-up while preparing your Visualize scenes as well. I\u2019ve been testing the Denoiser the last couple months and it\u2019s blown me away.<\/p>\n

Completing any Visualize render job 10x faster is truly game-changing. This could be a still image, animation, camera fly, exploded view, new 360-VR content, etc \u2013 all 10 times faster than how it\u2019s currently rendered today. Visualize is already known for fast rendering, but this AI Denoiser takes our render speeds to another stratosphere. This truly makes Visualize the fastest and easiest to use visualization tool on the market \u2013 period.<\/p>\n

And for those wondering, yes, the AI Denoiser will work in both Fast and Accurate render modes. To fully take advantage of this new super-feature, you\u2019ll need to adjust the final render settings. If you used to put 3,000 passes for Accurate, now you only have to enter 300 passes. Since rendering is 10x faster with the Denoiser, you can enter 10x fewer render passes! 5,000=500; 2,500=250; 1,000 = 100; 500=50 and so on. You might be able to lower the pass count even more \u2013 totally up to you!<\/p>\n

The AI Denoiser will be available with SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2018 SP3, both Standard and Professional!<\/strong><\/p>\n
