| 3dOP Overview
The ALLSCAPE customer service department is constantly asked by lighting designers, engineers and sales representatives questions similar to the following:
"What setback from the wall should we use with your in-ground fixture?"
"How many fixtures should we use to light a sign and how far should they be apart?"
"What is the best reflector to light a flag?"
"What height should I mount the fixture to the wall?"
Although there are several powerful lighting design tools available to help answer the questions, they require an expert to use them. It takes time to build a model, run the calc, change the position of the fixture and run the calc again. Lighting analysis should be quick and easy, especially when the answer is required immediately!
After some research it became clear that there was no outdoor software design tool available that was powerful, provided immediate answers, and was easy to use - therefore we give you 3dOP Pro, the latest version of 3dOP. 3dOP Pro comes with many new features that makes lighting design quick and easy.
3dOP Pro works with standard Type C IES format files allowing the user to position a fixture in a simple grid, and explore how light from the fixture projects onto a wall, the ground, or a surface as the position of the fixture is changed dynamically.
Using the fundamental equation "illuminance = intensity/distance-squared" at the heart of its algorithmic engine, we believe that 3dOP Pro is a major step forward in understanding the most ubiquitous commodity available...light!
