Description : KeyShot is everything you need to quickly create stunning visual effects. Real-time 3D visualization displays the results workflow instantly and reduces the time required to create realistic product shots. From scientifically accurate materials and environment presets to advanced material editing and animation, creating interactive visual products or sales and marketing images has never been easier.
KeyShot includes native support for over 30 leading 3D file formats. Free plugins provide one-click downloads, and LiveLinking keeps your design in sync across apps. Whether it’s a small gadget or a massive build, using KeyShot means less time downloading and more time creating.
KeyShot includes over 750 pre-installed footage, thousands more in KeyShot Cloud, and advanced options for creating your own. Easily apply textures, lettering and variations. KeyShot’s powerful lighting, studio and imaging tools let you capture the perfect shot and style it anytime.
KeyShot is built for speed, whether you’re creating still images or creating animations to push your visuals to the next level. From dynamic players and detailed product views to product configurators and virtual reality, KeyShot allows you and others to explore and interact with your ideas.
• The program can work as a standalone application or as an add-on (plugin), with the following formats: OBJ, Autodesk Alias Maya, FBX, 3DS, Rhinoceros Plugin, SketchUp, SolidWorks, Pro/ENGINEER Plugin, ALIAS, JT.
• Given that global illumination is used and materials based on real physical parameters, the resulting images are photographic quality.
• You get the result in real time.
• KeyShot Pro supports many native file formats including Pro/ENGINEER, SolidWorks, Rhino, SketchUp, Obj, IGES and STEP and more.
• Managed processor that runs on any modern PC;
• Use of “unbiased sampling technique” (Unbiased Sampling Technique), which calculates mathematically correct results;
• Use of scientifically accurate materials;
• Multinuclear photon projection (Photon Mapping);
• Adaptive material sampling and use of the Dynamic Light Core, which allows you to see the results during changes.
• KeyShot Pro uses a physically correct and proven CIE rendering engine with many innovations.
• The program does not require any special skills.
• KeyShot allows you to see the results immediately when you make any changes.
• KeyShot is a great tool for anyone involved with 3D data: artists, engineers, photographers. The only limitation is your creativity.

Improvements
- Improved performance when dragging and dropping materials onto objects in the realtime view.
- Added support for retaining Normals after Mesh Simplification.
- CATIA V5 3D Read: V5-6R2022 (R32); Parasolid 3D Read: V34.1; UG NX 3D Read: NX 2007, NX 2008, NX 2011, NX 2015
- Added support for importing Maya 2023 files.
