    Transoft Solutions recently released a new version of their InVision software. This
    software allows for the creation of animations that show how multiple vehicles will
    interact with a design. The simulation can then be saved as an AVI file for presentations
    and visual confirmation of a design.
</p>
<p>
    In InVision it is possible to set the speed and starts and stops of multiple vehicles
    in the animation. You can also move the camera view within the simulation environment
    and even show the animation from the driver’s view. The new version has been improved
    to keep up with the 3D capabilities of other CAD software.
</p>
<p>
    Some of the new features in this version include: multiple rendering options - wireframe,
    shaded or realistic; high definition, realistic 3D vehicle models; and multiple
    camera viewing options within the animations.

    "The ultimate goal is to produce an output video file … from the CAD environment
    in a common format played in most media players out there, to allow the operational
    video to be shared with technical and nontechnical stakeholders," Michael Frost,
    business development manager, Transoft Solutions, said.
</p>
<p>
    The animations help designers to "provide that means of technical design information,
    design challenges and mitigation of any design issues, while there sitting there
    with their clients," he said.
</p>
<p>
    "A lot of times non-technical stakeholders involved in projects do not pick up on
    the details of heavily lined or lined laden CAD drawings," Frost said. So visualizations
    can help get the point across better....
