Assemble scenes from different 3D tools without data preparation, then render and animate them in real time with Chaos Envision.
Envision is included with the Enscape Collection edition rather than sold separately. Professional CAD Systems is an official Chaos distributor in NZ; talk to us and we will set your team up with the Collection tier and local support.
Capabilities
What Envision adds
Scene scaling
Assemble detailed scenes from multiple tools using individual objects.
Cinematic storytelling
Camera paths, construction phasing, design variations and flyovers, with weather, time of day and animated vegetation setting the mood.
4D people and crowds
Animate people and crowds with Anima.
Design exploration
Create variations of any object, material or light, and animate between them for over-the-shoulder presentations.
High-end realism
Render-ready assets with rich geometry, advanced materials and dynamic lighting, plus AI-enhanced people and vegetation.
One scene, the whole Chaos family
Envision loads .vrscene data instantly, so Enscape and V-Ray work travels straight in with materials intact, and .fbx, .obj and .dae imports cover everything else.
Keep scenes linked to your CAD models
Advanced file linking carries changes from your CAD model into the assembled Envision scene, so a design change does not mean rebuilding the scene.

Envision FAQs
How do I get Chaos Envision?
Envision is included with the Enscape Collection edition; it is not sold as a standalone subscription. Buy the Collection from us and Envision comes with it, alongside Impact, Veras and the full Cosmos library.
What hardware does it need?
A Windows PC with a ray-tracing capable GPU: NVIDIA RTX series or AMD RX 6000 series or newer. If you are unsure, send us your workstation spec and we will check it.
What can I import?
Envision loads .vrscene natively, which covers Enscape and V-Ray output, and also imports .fbx, .obj and .dae, so scene elements from different tools combine without data preparation.
Does Envision replace Enscape?
No. Enscape renders inside CAD or BIM; Envision is a standalone app for scene assembly and cinematic presentations.
