Description

Houdini was designed from the ground up to empower artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with their colleagues. Houdini stores every action in a node. These nodes are "wired" into networks that define a "recipe", which can be tweaked to improve the outcome, then repeated to create unique results. Houdini's procedural nature is due to the ability of nodes to be saved or to pass information (in the form of attributes) down the chain. Houdini's unique nodes are what make it powerful. However, there are many viewport and shelf tools which allow for artist-friendly interaction. Behind the scenes, Houdini creates the networks and nodes for you. Houdini allows artists to explore new creative paths, as it is easy for them to branch off to explore other solutions.

Description

Animation software designed for crowds and individuals has been tailored for architects and designers, enabling them to seamlessly integrate 3D animated characters into their projects. Through anima®, these 3D figures transform into lifelike humans, with the latest 4D Digital Humans capturing intricate clothing details and delivering remarkable facial expressions. Moreover, by utilizing Ambient 3D characters, users can enhance the realism of scenes by populating both the foreground and midground. The platform employs the same top-tier 3D figures available in our metropoly® collections, ensuring that quality is never sacrificed. Our characters are powered by authentic motion capture data and an advanced AI system that automatically generates procedural movements for hyper-realistic crowd animations. By employing anima®, you can inject vitality into your architectural visualizations or other creative projects! This innovative toolset allows for effortless population of static images and animated videos with our meticulously crafted Metropoly® Ready-Posed and Metropoly® Rigged 3D Human models.
