Rendering speed
5x faster ray-traced videos In Lumion 2024, you can now achieve comparable quality output with ray tracing using far fewer samples than in the previous version.
This means significantly reduced video rendering times, making it easier to incorporate realistic, dynamic animations in your design evaluations and project presentations. |
Harness the power of nature
Whether you’re designing a landscape, placing a building within its environmental context, or embellishing an interior scene, nature provides an unparalleled means of creating convincing and inviting visual experiences.
With 2,200+ nature models now fully ray traced in the Lumion library, you can accurately portray how vegetation interacts with light. From the sunlight filtering through leaves to reflections of trees mirrored in glass facades, every shadow and reflection works together to reveal the true beauty of natural elements, making your visual narratives as convincing as they are captivating.

Fully ray-traced glass
Use the ray tracing effect to enhance minute details of glass, create intriguing patterns, and reproduce subtle variations naturally found in objects.
See how light interacts with glass surfaces and discover how realistic reflections, refractions, and shadows automatically reveal themselves. Or paint with light and color using tinted glass materials.

Colored glass shadows
Fine-tune glass like never before
With the new and updated glass properties, you can go a step further in refining details. Define the thickness of your objects’ surface with the emulated thickness slider. Control the amount of light absorbed with the absorption slider. And adjust the index of refraction that appears with the improved distortion slider.

Going beneath the surface
Translucent materials like marble, polycarbonate, and textiles add subtlety and depth to your designs. How they interact with light can profoundly influence the ambiance of spaces, setting the mood and capturing attention.
Lumion 2024 makes it easy to enhance the appearance of translucent materials with subsurface scattering. Now compatible with ray tracing, you can capture the nuanced interplay of light on these surfaces with stunning accuracy, adding a heightened sense of depth, dimension, and realism. From the subtle diffusion of light through its surface to the depth and warmth it exudes, every characteristic can be easily revealed.
