BIM Presentation and Communication - BIMx | GRAPHISOFT

BIMx is an interactive software application developed by GRAPHISOFT that supports architects, engineers, construction teams, and clients by delivering:

• Mobile access
  Run BIMx on mobile devices without special hardware to review designs and suggest changes on the go.
  
  
• Game-like experience
  Explore and share designs with project stakeholders through an interactive, game-like navigation experience
  
  
• Complete project documentation
  BIMx Hyper-models contain hyperlinks to the complete 2D project documentation, for easier access to corresponding datasheets.

• 2D and 3D visualization
  Team members or clients not trained in reading 2D plans can understand the design intent with a 3D visualization.
  
  
• Digital documentation
  BIMx provides access to up-to-date digital project documentation, reducing the need for paper prints.
  
  
• 3D models with metadata
  Instantly access all building-element information, including fire ratings and manufacturer-specific properties.

• Model streaming
  BIMx supports client engagement with model streaming technology that works like a computer game on projects of different scales.
  
  
• Connection to BIM databases
  Facility managers and owners can access and integrate Facilities Management databases for streamlined maintenance using the BIM model
  
  
• BIMx Model Transfer Site
  Upload BIMx Hyper-models to the BIMx Model Transfer site and share them through a simple web link. Visit the BIMx Model Transfer Site.
  
  
• Private BIMx Hyper-model sharing
  Graphisoft Subscribers, SSA, and Forward users can create and share private BIMx hyper-models with selected customers and clients. Hyper-models can also be embedded on websites.

• Hidden 3D Elements
  Improve client communication and collaboration with more interactive virtual models. Hide and unhide 3D elements or invert the current view to control model visibility. Multiple elements can be hidden by layers, layer folders, and layer combinations.

• BIMx on Apple Vision Pro
  Explore BIMx projects in immersive spatial computing environments.

• Cut Plane Color Picker
  Customize the 3D model’s representation by changing the color of cut surfaces. Corporate identity palettes can be inserted into the model.

• 3D Model Switch
  Guide project collaborators through one continuous visualization journey. Toggle between different 3D models within a project while maintaining a consistent camera position and view setting, including across Design Options.

• BIMx Issues Feature
  Use BIMx Issues to mark up any 2D or 3D views during on-site visits or off-site meetings. Issues are BCF compliant, so they stay trackable throughout the entire design process.

• Sign in for more BIMx features at no extra cost
  Most previously Pro features are now available to everyone with a Graphisoft Account. Sign in to access additional features. Additional collaboration features are available through account-based licensing on mobile devices.

• On-the-go access to information
  Access specifications and 3D element information directly from 2D layouts without switching between layout and 3D views. Associative labels provide easy access to relevant element information.

• Accurate Sun Positioning
  Accurate Sun Positioning in BIMx simulates natural light conditions based on the sun’s position, supporting the evaluation of daylight and environmental conditions during the design process.

• Embedded BIMx Web
  BIMx Hyper-models can be embedded directly into websites using an HTML code snippet generated from the “Embed Hyper-model” window. Embedded models can be accessed and explored through a web browser without requiring a separate application.
  Models stored with private visibility can also be embedded for viewing without allowing external users to download them. Explore how to embed BIMx Hypermodels.
