3Dconnexion 3D Mice Now Supported by Graphisoft ArchiCAD 12

Fremont, Calif : 3Dconnexion's award-winning line of 3D mice is now supported by the latest version of Graphisoft ArchiCAD® 12, the Virtual Building™ modeling and design solution for architects working in Building Information Modeling (BIM).

3Dconnexion 3D mice enable architects to visualize their virtual building in a more intuitive manner, whether working in a perspective or axonometry view. In addition, ArchiCAD 12 offers specific options for controlling the mode of navigation with a 3D mouse, allowing users to select either camera mode or object mode for effortless control.

Unlike mice confined to motion on one flat plane, 3Dconnexion's 3D mice enable users to move in all three dimensions simultaneously. By simply pulling, pushing and tilting the controller cap, architects working in ArchiCAD 12 have intuitive control in their 3D design environment. 3Dconnexion 3D mice further enhance the speed, design and documentation enhancements of ArchiCAD 12, ultimately helping users to design more creatively and be more productive.
