The simulation of the digital model to the virtual enviroment is one of the most advanced methods of accelerating and optimizing the design process. Virtual models and their variations are presented in real-time at the virtual enviroment where their shape and curves are realistically illustrated via tone values and reflections.

Simulation of lighting and virtual enviroment provide designers with an integrated and explicit view of the product whereby design lines are evaluated and occasional defects can be detected. In the near future, similar review methods will enable the on the spot intervention and change of design parameters, intending the creation of several alternatives of the same concept.
