-
- In the late eighties, as an off spring from the Amsterdam School of
- Architecture, RenderStar Technology introduced AXIS, a 3D modeller, to the
- Dutch market with relatively good results. The inclusion of 3D visualisation
- resulted in the development of rendering technology, which first came to the
- (international) market by 1990 as RenderStar. Subsequently AXIS was
- discontinued and special rendering applications for major CAD packages were
- developed. RenderStar's latest release is eXtension-24, which was introduced
- during the A/E/C Systems Show '92, followed just recently by ARE-24, a
- co-development with KETIV Technologies, Inc from Portland OR.. The company's
- main areas of activity are the development and marketing of end user products
- for rendering (RenderStar 2, eXtension-24, ARE-24), making the core
- technology available for OEM applications (ARE 1, Arkey, Pointline, BauCAD)
- and doing visualisation services in the Benelux.
-
- The Technical Staff of RTBV has been working in the computer graphics field
- for almost as long as the existence of that technology. A wide range of
- technical and artistic awards has been taken back to Amsterdam by the
- RenderStar developers, ranging from Caddie awards to just recently an
- honourable mentioning in the Prix Ars Electronique, organised by the
- Austrian Public Television. The winner in the Fine Arts category of
- Autodesk's First International Image and Animation Award is RTBV's head of
- development with an image made using AutoCAD and RenderStar 2 eXtension-24.
-
- Both RenderStar and ARE-24 are available in over 30 countries in seven
- languages.
-
- ARE-24 is available for AutoCAD R12 for DOS, Windows, SGI Indigo/Indy, Sun
- Sparc station and HP 700 workstations at US$ 795.
-
- RenderStar-2 eXtension-24 retails for approx. $1,500 and is available for DOS
- only, using DXF input.
-
- An extensive dealer list and more information as well as demo versions are
