SU Podium Browser is now fully included with a V2.6 license. Podium Browser is a growing library of over 20,000 render ready components that can be dropped into a SketchUp model and rendered without any additional setup. SU Podium v2.6 [Perpetual] now compatible with SketchUp 2017 – 2020.
What is SU Podium?
SU Podium V2.6 is a photorealistic rendering plug-in for SketchUp. Podium is easy to learn, generating beautiful, photorealistic rendering of your SketchUp models.
SU Podium V2.6 employs advanced rendering technology but sticks to it’s original intention: To make photo-realistic rendering for SketchUp an easy and rewarding task. The user interface is simply and does not require advanced knowledge of rendering techniques.
- Raytracing and Global Illumination: SU Podium uses a photon mapping algorithm that provides accurate raytracing and global illumination that yields beautiful, photo-realistic images. Although the user does not have to be aware of what technology is being used, it’s important to note that you can obtain high quality images with realistic reflection and lighting, quickly.
- Multi-Threading: SU Podium uses multi-threading to take advantage of all your CPU cores and threads. Podium is not a hybrid render-engine; for a GPU based solution, we offer ProWalker GPU powered by NVIDIA Iray.
- Cross-platform accessibility: SU Podium V2.6 supports Windows or Mac operating systems, with support for SketchUp 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. Earlier SketchUp version users will need to install SU Podium V2.5, which is backward compatible to SketchUp 2014.
- Podium Browser is automatically installed with SU Podium and provides thousands of furniture items, light fixtures, high resolution textures, plants, trees, vehicles, and household components to use in your SKetchUp scenes.
- Everything in the library is pre-configured with Podium material properties to that the items can be used in your designs without any additional setup time. The library includes dozens of furniture assemblies so that you can populate and visualise interior spaces faster than ever before, and of course everything is fully customisable so that you can modify anything to suit your specific needs.
We have also recently moved to SUPodium for rendering. We produce renders for some of our design work to help client visualisation and to help sell the proposition. We are by no means experts at this, and so the attraction of SUPodium over our previous render engine is that it makes a “passable” image possible without a massive investment in time. I also like the fact that version 2.6 now ships with their extensive object and material library – Mark Woodman, Director, Solutions4Gardens
