This plugin for Rhinocerous 3D can be used to add raytracing and radiosity functionality to Rhino. This program allows users to render photometrically accurate images with reflections, refraction, diffusion, translucency, transparency, color bleeding, shadows, depth of field, depth attenuation, ClearFinish™, and indirect lighting. An example of a design rendered using Flamingo can be seen below:
This plugin for Rhinocerous 3D can be used to add freehand sketching, watercolor painting, cartoon-like rendering, and technical illustration functionality to Rhino, as well as AutoCAD. This program allows users to render conceptual, sketch and cartoon, and non-photometric scan line designs. Penguin allows users to generate stylized images of models with an artistic look for enhanced graphic and visual appeal. An example of a design rendered using Penguin can be seen below:
This plugin for Rhinocerous 3D can be used to bring professional animation functionality to Rhino. It allows users to animate moving, scaling, and rotating designs within the Rhino software. Because these objects and animations can be edited within Rhino, you can easily modify your data without wasting time changing between multiple programs. Bongo can also utilize the rendering features included in Rhino, Flamingo, and Penguin in order to generate photo-realistic animations.
