Polished infrastructure presentation stills from Sensat viewpoints.
Infrastructure intelligence and visualisation platform that brings CAD and BIM designs, GIS layers, reality capture, geolocated photos, and project information into a shared view of the real site.
Infrastructure intelligence and visualisation platform that brings CAD and BIM designs, GIS layers, reality capture, geolocated photos, and project information into a shared view of the real site.
Sensat helps infrastructure delivery teams inspect a proposed asset against its real-world setting by bringing designs, survey and reality data, GIS layers, site photos, measurements, and annotations into one geolocated environment. That makes a carefully chosen Sensat viewpoint a useful starting image for explaining a road junction, rail-side intervention, pipeline corridor, substation, treatment works, or land-development option to people who do not need the full technical workspace. RENDERCAD can develop that source view into an illustrative still for a planning pack, design-option review, consultation display, project update, or presentation board. It is most useful for communicating visual intent such as a proposed finished appearance, planting and public-realm treatment, atmosphere, season, weather, or an indicative construction-stage scene. The result should support discussion, not replace project evidence: use Sensat and the connected project records to check location, geometry, measurements, constraints, versions, and approvals.
In Sensat, turn on only the design, terrain or basemap, survey, GIS, and site-image layers needed to explain the decision, then use a clear 2D or 3D viewpoint that retains recognisable site context. Capture a high-resolution, uncluttered snapshot of that viewpoint. Upload the image to RENDERCAD and describe the intended visual direction, for example a credible finished scheme, a clearer material and landscape treatment, a daylight or dusk presentation, or an indicative temporary works context. Keep instructions tied to visible elements rather than inventing technical details hidden outside the frame. Compare the resulting still-image directions for a report, stakeholder meeting, or early options conversation. Return to Sensat and the relevant source systems for measurements, annotations, live layers, model interrogation, design coordination, and any decision that requires verified project data.

RENDERCAD uses a maintained selection of image-generation models for different rendering tasks. Results can vary by model and input, so compare generated output with the source design before relying on geometry, materials, or dimensions.

Read the numbers. We trust you to know theirs.
Skip a separate local scene build. Pick a condition, material, and background while RENDERCAD handles the image-generation step. Image renders complete in 60 seconds.
Common solutions for Sensat users
Reuse a clear history image and change the color instruction or reference. Treat the results as visual options rather than color-managed proof.
Describe the finish, gloss, grain direction, and lighting, or provide an authorized material reference. Generated reflections are visual approximations rather than physically verified material behavior.
It uses generative image models with screenshot or image inputs. Models and features can change over time, so current product documentation is the source of truth.
Video jobs consume credits based on current duration and model settings. Check the pricing page for current costs rather than comparing with an assumed outsourcing price.
Yes, if you are authorized to use the photo. It can guide the environment, while placement, lighting, and shadows remain generated interpretations.
Yes. Mask the region that needs adjustment and provide a focused instruction. RENDERCAD generates a new image, so inspect both the targeted region and the rest of the output for drift.
Reuse the same source image with authorized daytime and night lighting references or instructions. Compare both outputs with the source because lighting changes can also alter generated details.
Use a clear capture, choose the Factory New condition, and describe the intended plastic type, color, and finish. Review the generated surface because gloss, texture, and molded details can vary.
Add phrases like "Light from left," "Backlit," or "Top down lighting" to your custom prompt in RENDERCAD.
Choose the Orbit camera preset and keep the source image as the authority for product shape and visible details. Generated parallax and newly revealed areas can vary.
Submit a clear viewport screenshot to the web workflow instead of running a local scene render. The generation request runs in the cloud while your source application remains separate.
Open the current desktop app or browser extension, select the viewport region, and send the captured image into the screenshot-based workflow. Availability and device requirements are documented on the current download pages.
