About Autodesk VRED Professional. Autodesk VRED Professional software, part of the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping, helps users create high-end visualizations and virtual prototypes in the automotive development process and CGI production. Visualization experts, color & trim specialists, lighting designers, and marketers can use the full power of design and engineering evaluation tools and immersive workflows to collaborate on and visualize a photorealistic prototype. Perceived quality as well as ergonomics of an automotive model can be explored through the high-fidelity rendering results of the VRED rendering engine. By moving from physical to virtual processes, car manufacturers and their suppliers can help close communication gaps and shorten the overall time to market.

About Autodesk VRED Design. Autodesk VRED Design software, part of the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping, is an interactive design exploration and presentation tool for digital modelers and visualization teams in the automotive industry. Design decisions in car manufacturing have to be made at a very early stage, as they significantly influence the production process. VRED Design enables users to create compelling imagery and animations for exploring, presenting, and communicating design ideas for efficient decision making and for further general communications. Teams can benefit from real-time design reviews, interactive aspects for design selection, and tools for exploring alternatives (material variations, shape, look, etc.).
