We have created a new online self-paced training course for Autodesk Showcase.
This course covers the basic functionality of Showcase and what steps are necessary to create real-time photo realistic imagery from your existing 3D geometry.
If you have a seat of Showcase and haven't taken the time to learn the software this is your chance. This class covers the basics and walks you through the process of creating an image like the one you see above.

Have you ever wondered what your AutoCAD 3D model looks like before you got to the point of making real parts? Autodesk Showcase can help you do just that. Import your 3D DWG data from AutoCAD into Showcase and use its extensive library of materials to create realistic imagery of your product. You can also take advantage of Showcase realtime rendering to virtually take your product for a spin allowing you to make an educated decision before commiting time and money to making real parts.
If you would like to learn more about Showcase email the CAD Geeks at, cadgeeks@tatatechnologies.com
Autodesk Showcase will allow you and your company to leverage your 3D CAD data with the benefits of high-end visuals.
Let our visualization team show you the power of Showcase by creating an image for you free of charge!

So............I have been working the AutoCAD/Inventor ranks for the last 10 years or so. Every couple years new technology shows up on the scene that really recaptures my free time. Most recently the technology has been Autodesk Showcase. This cool product came to the Autodesk MSD family when the bought up Alias. So be sure and check out the product link above to learn more after you see this cool command called side by side.
BTW - Showcase Imports Inventor Data, and almost any other 3d format!
The Side by Side command, as the name indicates, lets you take two showcase scenes and compare all the different elements of each. Before I joined the reseller world I was required to create design concepts and share them with the sales team and or customers. Not that this was a bad thing, but I always had to pre-plan every possible viewpoint or dataset the would want to look at. Within Autodesk Showcase I can now have real time rendering and show off my concepts using the Side by Side.

Some of the coolest software I have recently been fortunate to work with is Autodesk Showcase. If you subscribe to the picture being a thousand words, then that picture better look nice.
A nice picture always requires a nice background, and the Alias Design Community has some great example Showcase and Alias Studio environments available for free download. Take a look at the following site and check out the downloads area.
