Kubotek Partners with Bunkspeed for Integrated KeyCreator CAD and HyperShot Photo Rendering Solution

Kubotek USA announces that Bunkspeed’s rendering application HyperShot can now be incorporated with its KeyCreator CAD software for distribution within the Americas. This integration is made possible by a partnership with Bunkspeed, makers of HyperShot. The agreement will further enhance the speed and flexibility for designers and engineers to not only create 3D models, but to then render them into photographic imagery for use in design, engineering and marketing.

HyperShot is the first digital camera for 3D data. Using scientifically accurate materials and real-world lighting in real-time, the patent pending application gives anybody involved with 3D data the ability to create photographic images in a matter of minutes.

Kubotek USA has developed a plugin for HyperShot that allows for seamless integration of the two technologies. By combining the flexible, direct modeling 3D CAD technology of KeyCreator with such a simple and intuitive, real-time rendering software, Kubotek customers will be able to bring their CAD data to life quickly.

Says Scott Sweeney, Vice President from Kubotek, “This is a perfect package for anyone in the product or industrial design world that wants world class photorealistic rendering for their models, but doesn’t want to spend the hours it can often times take to setup and render their models for Digital prototyping or marketing purposes. We feel the two packages together give our customers unmatched ease of use and flexibility without sacrificing precision—qualities that are at the heart of technology.”

As part of a limited time introductory celebration, Kubotek is offering special pricing on new seats of KeyCreator bundled with HyperShot. Call or visit Kubotek USA on the web for additional information on this offer.
