Public Company Information: NASDAQ: ADSK   SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Autodesk, Inc.<\/a>\u00a0(NASDAQ:ADSK) today announced the launch of\u00a0Autodesk LIVE<\/a>, a new interactive visualization service which offers\u00a0Revit<\/a>\u00a0users in the architecture, engineering and construction industries (AEC) the ability to transform their designs into fully-interactive 3D models. Previously known as \u201cProject Expo,\u201d the Autodesk LIVE experience draws viewers into the story of an architectural design much like a video game. With one click in Revit, Autodesk LIVE seamlessly and invisibly converts a project visualization into an interactive model in the cloud. Architects, engineers and construction professionals may customize and more easily share the experience with clients to explore on their own, enhancing communication of a digital design before a project ever breaks ground. \u201cWhile a picture may say a thousand words, Autodesk believes that an immersive experience says everything,\u201d said Amar Hanspal, senior vice president, Autodesk. \u201cLIVE is a perfect example of how film and game development is influencing client expectations in the AEC world. Imagine the ability to step inside a building and experience everything well before it is real. With such simplicity, clients can do more than just see what a space looks like, they can better know what it feels like. Autodesk LIVE may forever change the way AEC professionals communicate with their clients.\u201d With the addition of LIVE, Autodesk now offers a full spectrum of visualization tools for AEC professionals of all levels of tech experience seeking to up their game. LIVE is the latest offering in the company\u2019s\u00a0LIVE Design<\/a>\u00a0family of visualization tools.

Autodesk LIVE support for virtual reality technologies such as HTC Vive, Oculus Rift and other popular brands is expected to be available at a later date.
