How to use AI in D5 Render?

D5 Render has always focused on making stunning 3D renders accessible to everyone. Since the release of D5 2.6, they are taking it a step further and adding the power of AI as well.

From effortless spatial designs to instant optimisations, D5 Render's pioneering AI features are not just bells and whistles; they radically redefine the creative process.

Effortless spatial concept generation with AI: D5 Hi

Enter your design ideas and preferences using prompts or upload a rough sketch of your space's layout, a bare sketch of your dream room or even an image as inspiration. D5 Hi then translates your creative input into visual possibilities with amazing accuracy. Use them as a starting point for detailed design plans or joint discussions with stakeholders.

Easier optimisations

1. One-click environment settings: AI Atmosphere Match

Create a breathtaking atmosphere with one click. All you have to do is upload a reference image that represents exactly the atmosphere you want. The AI Atmosphere Match analyses the key characteristics of the reference image and translates them into the settings in D5.

Within moments, your design is transformed with the perfect light and weather conditions, whether it is the soft glow of a sunset or the dramatic intensity of a stormy night. The tool uses a colour transfer neural network to ensure that the hues of your design seamlessly match the reference image, for an immersive visual experience.

2. Easy material editing: AI Material Match & AI-generated Material Texture Maps

• AI Material Match

Import your model into the D5 scene, select the model in the source list, right-click and choose ‘AI Material Match’. D5 immediately applies an appropriate material template, which includes a wide range of commonly used materials and textures.

• AI-generated Material Texture Maps

Create photorealistic materials in minutes without spending hours searching for compatible texture maps or adjusting parameters. Leave it to AI to analyse and generate the texture.

• AI Make Seamless

One-click seamless textures for perfect materials.

• AI Ultra HD Texture

Upgrade texture resolution to 4K and remove noise and imperfections from fuzzy and grainy maps.

3.Streamlined post-production: AI Enhancer (beta)

AI Enhancer (beta) in D5 Render enhances various elements in your renders, such as lighting, materials, characters, vehicles and vegetation. This tool enables selective area enhancement with three intensity levels - weak, normal and strong - making your renders more detailed and realistic. In addition, the AI Enhancer Channel improves the accuracy of area selection, giving you precise control over the enhancements. You can track and view all enhancement tasks in your D5 account, giving you a comprehensive history of render improvements.

Design on a higher level

Designers have lived through the days of drawing with pencil and ruler, the era of CAD replacing tablets, and are now experiencing a shift from 2D to 3D, and the gradual involvement of AI in the project. ‘Some designers call AI magic. Technology, like magic, needs people to be applied properly. AI will make design itself more demanding, so we need to keep up with that demand,’ Studio of Urban Studies said.

More than a tool, D5 Render revolutionises the design process and makes it accessible to everyone. But above all, discover it for yourself and start your trial version right now!
