Project Showroom Now Available

Experience it before it's real - that's our company motto. Towards this end Autodesk Labs is happy to share a technology preview that demonstrates the concept. It's called Project Showroom.
Showroom is another one of our many solutions for design visualization. The scenario for this technology preview is a home builder who allows clients to customize their homes by selecting accessories. The clients can then see a realistic rendering [as well as the additional cost :-)] of their home based on the choices they have made. To solicit your feedback, we have provided a sample for configuring a bathroom. You can start with something like this:

and end up with something like this:

As it says on the project Showroom home page "Click on a part to explore the possibilities." So check out Project Showroom. It's fun.

Project Showroom is not an open source thing. It is a technology that we would like to hear from customers regarding how they would use it.

Thank you for the feedback. Adding accessories by dragging and dropping is fun. We do need to create a way for people to be able to delete added accessories. Right now it is like Pottery Barn. You drop it. You bought it.

It's indeed a lot of fun! This is what I made of it: http://inventorwizard.blogspot.com/2007/07/project-showroom-aan-de-tand-gevoeld.html my remarks: - how can I delete an accessorie? - Room is taking strange shapes when zooming out too much, can you put a limit on this?
