Sketch Up Accurate measurements: Work with precision SketchUp is great for working fast and loose in 3D,

but it's more than just a fancy electronic pencil. Because you're working on a computer,

everything you create in SketchUp has a precise dimension.

When you're ready, you can build models that are as accurate as you need them to be.

If you want, you can print scaled views of your model, and if you have SketchUp Pro, you can even export your geometry into other programs like AutoCAD and 3ds MAX

anything you need The Trimble 3D Warehouse is a huge,

online repository of 3D models which you can search through when you need something

Sketch Up Look Around and Walk: Explore your creations

firsthand SketchUp lets you get inside your model with

a set of simple navigation tools designed to give you a first-person view.

Augmented reality

Augmented reality (AR) is a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data.

Augmented reality On the spectrum between virtual reality,

which creates immersive, computer-generated environments, and the real world, augmented reality is closer to the real world.

Augmented reality adds graphics, sounds, haptic feedback to the natural world

Both video games and cell phones are driving the development of augmented reality.

Everyone from tourists, to soldiers, to someone looking for the closest florist can now benefit from the ability to place computer-generated graphics in their field of vision.

My Pantone If you’ve ever been a print

designer, you’re probably fond of colour books full of Pantone swatches that fan out into a rainbow of easily browsable colors.

For over 50 years, PANTONE has been the international language of color. Why struggle with color communication

My Pantone offers this functionality in the convenience of an iPhone app. Price: $9.99
