First off, Trimble released SketchUp for iPad as a public beta for the first time. We’ve already received feedback indicating that designing on the go with the iPad will drastically change the workflow of many of our users. SketchUp Studio now offers photorealistic rendering capabilities in V-Ray as well as the ability to import point clouds in Scan Essentials into your modeling environment.
Furthermore, Trimble revamped SketchUp Campus, a SketchUp tool for standardization, 3D Warehouse, dark mode, account management, and much more. It has taken SketchUp’s teams throughout the year to develop intuitive, robust software that makes the design process seamless or, at the very least, tingles your heart.
SketchUp Studio
SketchUp Studio has been improved to make it a greater asset to Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) professionals. In addition, V-Ray and Scan Essentials have been incorporated. The rendering you created with V-Ray or the model you created by importing a point cloud is stunning.
Studio in Classroom
The education team welcomed SketchUp Studio with jubilation for its first year at college. Students and professors can use SketchUp Studio for Higher Education’s powerful design program while remaining creative. SketchUp’s new offering makes the product easier to deploy and manage, offers convenient tier pricing, and allows broader access to its core product suite.
3D Warehouse Integration
3D Warehouse models can now be viewed in a dark mode in SketchUp. Your 3D assets will appear sharper on screen as a result of the high contrast. You should at least give it a try if you haven’t already.
Stroll around Campus
New to 2021 is SketchUp Campus, a training platform for SketchUp users. The goal of Trimble was to make learning materials easier to access and easy to track. This may be of interest to you if you plan to learn 3D modeling this year. Trimble’s new website has the training and courses you need to make your designs stand out.
Workflow
By making the more nuanced functionality of SketchUp more accessible, this update improves consistency among tools within the SketchUp ecosystem. In the construction industry, 3D printing makes it more efficient, reduces costs, and eliminates emissions. As a result, the construction of the largest 3D-printed building made from concrete marks a major milestone in this field.
User Friendly
SketchUp’s user-friendly interface and ability to let you easily express complex concepts make it one of the most popular design tools in the world. Behind the scenes, administrators deploy and manage SketchUp software for architects and engineers. As a result, software and IT managers can work more efficiently and effectively with the Trimble account management portal in 2021.
Beta Version in I-Pad
The beta start of SketchUp & iPad’s union couldn’t be more exciting for us. The Apple Pencil, multi-touch, as well as mouse, and keyboard are supported with this incredible model. Thanks to this beta version, you can significantly shape the 3d model. You should showcase your work if you are participating in the beta.
Wrapping it Up
Despite providing software, SketchUp is so much more than that. They care about the success of their users. The goal of their design community is to bring professionals and hobbyists together around a shared interest in 3D modeling. You can immerse yourself in all of the top-notch, on-demand learning content we offer, as well as that of your colleagues, interior designers, architects, and engineers.
