Polish HyperMesh model-build and mesh views for reviews.
Altair HyperMesh is a CAE modeling and finite element pre- and post-processing environment used to build, edit, mesh, morph, assemble, and visualize complex engineering models.
Altair HyperMesh is a CAE modeling and finite element pre- and post-processing environment used to build, edit, mesh, morph, assemble, and visualize complex engineering models.
Open the relevant HyperMesh model, isolate the mesh, CAD geometry, assembly, contour view, or display state that needs review, and capture a clean viewport image. Upload the capture to RENDERCAD to create a clearer presentation render for reports, design reviews, proposals, and stakeholder communication without rebuilding the CAE model in a separate visualization tool.
Modeled by CADSharp in Onshape. Rendered with RENDERCAD.

Tired of keeping up with the latest gen AI models? RENDERCAD is powered by a proprietary ensemble of the most cutting-edge AI engines, always up to date and fine-tuned to strictly maintain your design intent.
| Feature | RENDERCAD | Altair HyperMesh viewport visualization |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | Generative AI | Interactive CAE model build, meshing, morphing, assembly, and visualization workflow rather than a dedicated photoreal renderer |
| Output | Images + Video | CAE model views, mesh review captures, solver-preparation visuals, screenshots, and engineering presentation images depending on workflow |
| Resolution | HD / 4K | Controlled by viewport size, display resolution, screenshot method, and export settings |
| Image Speed | ≈10 - 60 Seconds | Viewport responsiveness depends on model size, mesh density, display state, graphics hardware, and workstation resources |
| Video Speed | ≈1 - 5 Minutes | Review playback or recorded walkthrough speed depends on model complexity, visualization mode, result data, and local workstation performance |
| Scene Set Up | Zero | Prepare CAD geometry, components, mesh controls, materials, loads, result contours, display states, orientation, and visibility inside HyperMesh before capture |
| Input | Screen Snip | CAD geometry, finite element models, assemblies, mesh data, solver decks, and model-build views handled in HyperMesh workflows |
| Hardware | Cloud GPU | Desktop HyperWorks workflow on supported Windows and Linux systems |
| Install | None | Installed Altair HyperWorks or HyperMesh software and valid licensing required |
| Cost | from $20/mo | Altair commercial licensing and account terms vary by region, organization, and deployment |
Read the numbers. We trust you to know theirs.
Skip the setup tax. Pick the condition, material, and background with just a click while RENDERCAD handles the heavy lifting. No lighting rigs, no environment setup, no 45-minute wait; get photorealistic results in seconds.
We bring the tools directly to you. Overlay your system with our web app. Desktop app & browser extension are being redesigned and will be back soon.
Get StartedCommon solutions for Altair HyperMesh users
Instead of complex UV mapping, upload your image or use the RENDERCAD overlay tool to snip your screen. Type "Carbon Fiber" in the prompt, select "Exact" style, and in about 10-60 seconds, the AI will retexture your image realistically.
Snap a picture using the RENDERCAD overlay. Select the "Realistic" engine, set Condition to "Clean," and prompt "Brushed Aluminum." The AI applies the texture orientation correctly to your geometry.
Don't struggle with refraction settings. Upload your image or snip your view with RENDERCAD, set Style to "Creative," and prompt "Clear Glass." The engine handles transparency and light bending automatically.
Upload a CAD screenshot, real photo, or hand drawing to RENDERCAD Studio. Add "Cold beverage with condensation" to your custom prompt. The "Realistic" engine will generate realistic droplets on the surface.
Use the RENDERCAD overlay. Prompt for "Injection Molded Plastic" and in Advanced Settings, set Condition to "Clean" for a smooth, factory-fresh look.
You don't need texture maps. Upload your image or snip your screen with RENDERCAD, then set Advanced Settings > Condition to "Dirty" or "Heavily Used" to instantly apply rust and age.
Capture your model and prompt "Oak Wood" in RENDERCAD. The Image-to-Image engine generates a unique, non-repeating grain pattern that fits your object's form.
Upload your image or snip your screen. In RENDERCAD, prompt "Polished Gold" and set Background to "Grey" or "Gradient." The AI generates the necessary reflections to simulate a metallic surface.
No need for bump maps. Use the RENDERCAD overlay to capture the view, then prompt "Black Leather." The AI interprets the depth and stitching automatically.
Capture your screen and use the custom prompt "Glowing Neon Blue Lights." The AI paints the bloom and light spill directly onto your image.
While RENDERCAD generates full rectangular images, you can set the Background to "White" or "Grey" in Advanced Settings for easy masking in post-production.
Upload your image or snip the model, then prompt for "Denim," "Cotton," or "Velvet." RENDERCAD applies the weave texture naturally over the surface.
