Supplementary explanation
- Lumion currently supports only Windows 64-bit operating systems and does not support Mac OS.
- The system requirements are quite high; it is recommended to use a Windows 10 or later operating system equipped with a high-performance graphics card (16GB VRAM or more), 64GB RAM, and a high-speed SSD to ensure smooth operation.
- Lumion Studio is a bundled package that integrates Pro and View licenses, suitable for teams that require collaboration and provides floating license management.
- This detailed comparison chart can help you choose the most suitable version of Lumion based on operating system, hardware requirements, and functional needs.
Lumion product positioning
- The positioning of Lumion products is mainly based on workflow and user needs:
- Lumion View is positioned as a real-time visualization and conceptual design tool, emphasizing rapid presentation and communication at the early stages of design. It allows users to preview design concepts immediately and is suitable for designers or team members who need to quickly produce high-quality visual effects. It serves as a complementary tool to Lumion Pro and a convenient plugin for modeling software, supporting seamless integration into subsequent professional rendering workflows or final rendering. (Lumion View requires lower system and hardware specifications.)
- Lumion Pro is positioned as a professional-grade architectural visualization and rendering software designed for architects, interior designers, and landscape designers. It offers a comprehensive asset library, rich environmental effects, animation production, and high-resolution output, suitable for professional users requiring full-process production from concept to final product.
- Lumion Studio is a package designed for team collaboration needs, combining the floating license of Lumion Pro and the dedicated user license of Lumion View, facilitating multi-user license sharing and enhancing team efficiency.
- In summary, Lumion centers its products around “workflow,” dividing them into View for quick visual presentation and Pro for advanced professional rendering, with Studio supporting team collaboration to meet design needs at different stages and scales.
