Nexus®

You may be interested in licensing our technology to create or extend your own applications.

Luxology has developed a software architecture called Nexus®. Nexus is a cross-platform, media-aware architecture for rapid deployment of 2D and 3D authoring and visualization applications.

modo is itself built from Nexus, and Luxology is actively involved in licensing this technology to companies. Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corp. (press release) and Bentley Systems (press release) have each licensed Nexus technology to deliver rendering and animation capabilities for their customers.

 

Nexus Architecture

Here at Luxology, our development is based upon an internally developed architecture called Nexus® that provides a consistent and malleable foundation to develop products upon. Our modo® 3D application, for example, is built from Nexus. Nexus is a highly layered, cross-platform, generalized, time-aware architecture for rapid development of media applications – both 2D and 3D.

We are currently working with corporate partners leveraging the Nexus architecture to create innovative new 3D enabled applications. Feel free to contact us if you would to explore if Nexus could offer value in your product portfolio. For more information on Nexus, please click here.

 

PhotoView 360, Built on Nexus

In a partnership between Luxology Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks, Nexus technology was used to jointly develop PhotoView 360, the new design visualization application that is bundled with SolidWorks Premium and Professional 2009 editions. Designed to deliver new levels of interactivity, the software features physically based lighting, a library of realistic surface appearances and a collection of studio-quality lighting environments. Nexus is the core rendering technology behind PhotoView 360. More information on PhotoView 360 can be found on the Luxology web site here.

Our primary goal in developing PhotoView 360 was to allow our customers to get to a great looking image with minimum effort and expertise. Luxology’s Nexus technology has allowed us to deliver a product to our customers that removes a lot of the mystery in rendering and delivers very rapid results.
