What more can one say about a technology that has done so much and brought so much change? 3D rendering has come a long way since its inception in the 1960s. It is a technology that has reshaped our concept of the “end product.”

It is a technology that has changed and improved with every passing year. The best part? It’s nowhere close to its final form! There are still so many areas where it can make progress. What are some of these areas? Let’s have a look.

3D Rendering in Augmented Reality

Augmented reality (AR) is a technology that is still in its infancy, but one that has greatly benefitted from the use of 3D rendering. For those unfamiliar with the concept, augmented reality is a bit like virtual reality. However, what makes it different is that the person viewing it does not need any sort of headset or viewing device.

AR has the potential to revolutionize many fields and areas of research. These include medicine, engineering, architecture, and even fields of entertainment like gaming and DJing. By harnessing the power of 3D rendering, people will be able to view 2D objects in a three-dimensional space and interact with them in real time.

A Future in Gaming

While we’re on the topic of gaming, let’s discuss it’s future with 3D rendering. We’ve come a long way from the 2D graphics of early game titles like Pong and Space Invaders. It’s all about 3D graphics now, and 3D rendering is just what’s going to take these graphics to the next level.

Taking one look at the current generation of games tells us all we need to know about where the industry is headed. God of War, Uncharted 4 and other similar games show us the raw power of 3D rendering. As technology improves, there’s no doubt that 3D rendering will bring gaming to its final graphical peak – true photorealism.

Architecture Brought to Life

Probably the industry that has the most to gain from improvements to 3D rendering is the architecture industry. A lot has been said about what this technology brings to the industry, and for good reason.

While things like blueprints and hand-drawn designs have their appeal, a good 3D render trumps all! Not only is it cost effective, but it also saves time, effort, and is far more visually appealing than any blueprint. Moreover, since you can change it in real time, you don’t have to deal with the hassle of starting from scratch. As 3D rendering gets bigger and better, the complexity and intricacy of these architectural designs will too.

Conclusion

There are a lot of industries that owe their progress to the advancement of 3D rendering. The technology has truly come a long way since its early days. There’s no telling where it will go from here and how it will improve. The only thing for sure is that 3D rendering will get better. As a result, the final products of this technology will get better, too.
