Renderings are vital for our business to show off ideas and concepts to clients. We try our best to keep up with latest applications and techniques. Recently we took on the challenge of experimenting with new software. The image provided was created using a updated rendering software add-on to Google Sketchup called Vray.

The ChoasGroup flagship has lived up to its title as #1 professional renderer for SketchUp. We experienced quality, power, and ease of use. Even though this is not a sponsored ad review, we wanted to share that possibilities with other professionals. One of the most important aspect for us was to have access to a quality water texture rendering. We appreciated the level of detail and accessibility the product provides. 

Another new piece of technology that we were fortunate to come across is drone-based work. For some of the larger and more complicated projects, this option is something to be used more increasingly as time and technology move forward. The company, DroneWorks, provide us with a presentation on their abilities with their airborne-employees. Some of the more impressive challenges they can provide are orthomosaics, vegetative analysis, and 3D modeling. There is a vast amount of new companies being thought of every day, and we as professionals must find the right tool to help ourselves and our client(s).
