3D Rendering Software
3D Rendering software helps architects, graphic designers, and other visual artists create two-dimensional (2D) images from three-dimensional (3D) models. 3D renders may include photorealistic effects or non-photorealistic styles. Users can insert models, objects, and characters into graphically appropriate settings with lighting, textures, and other interactive elements. 3D Rendering is similar to 3D CAD and 3D Architecture.
