Aftercad Tunes Renderjam.com 3D Collaboration Service for Google SketchUp Users

Vancouver B.C. - November 9th, 2009 - Aftercad Software is pleased to announce that our Renderjam.com 3D collaboration service has been optimized for Google SketchUp users, offering an unprecedented level of freedom for projects that use 3D assets..

"As the next step in our Aftercad 3D Live market rollout, we have embraced Google SketchUp users as the heir apparent in 3D CAD work on the web. Google has done a terrific job with SketchUp and its rapid adoption across all areas of CAD and Design has made it a perfect tool to work with to introduce true 3D collaboration on the Web." said Chris Boothroyd, CEO of Aftercad. "Our goal to make 3D assets easily accessible for collaboration is now a powerful tool in any designer's tool belt. Now all projects that include SketchUp 3D assets can offer stakeholders equal access and the opportunity to participate."

SketchUp users can signup on Renderjam.com for free, create a workspace and start collaborating on 3D assets within minutes. The Renderjam service tracks all workspace activity and can issue a daily audit trail report of all changes made by participants. Most importantly, all project stakeholders including those who don't have SketchUp can easily see, manipulate and annotate the 3D project assets in the web browser and directly contribute to the project instead of having to wait for emails, look at still images or couriered paper rolls.

"This is a brand new development and once again, Aftercad is the first. This technology will open up new verticals of communication where individuals have easy access and interactivity with real time 3D from wherever they are. Coupled with the market momentum of Google SketchUp, this is an exciting development in the democratization of 3D. If this changes your 3D perspective on things and you have some ideas you'd like to chase, check out our video: http://www.renderjam.com/rjvideo.aspx which demonstrates this new approach. Give us a try and we'll bring your 3D assets to life" concludes Boothroyd.
