Liberation of 3D grapfic with tools such as Blender – always had the potential to change the ground not only for visual part, but also potential to unlock all sort of other implementations – SOLID, CAD, BIM.
Blender already took a huge share on additive technology market, by replacing usual CAD and SOLID tools for engineering. Many cases shows that mesh modeling in fact gives shortcut from idea to product printout.
But now It goes to new and literaly big area – BIM software free by nature, with unlimited customization potential for all sort of implementation. It might overthrow current balance in Construction industry:
BonsaiBIM extension for Blender blends CAD modeling with 3D enviroment with align of BIM approach and IFC specifications.
