Photorealistic rendering turns a 3D model into an image that reads as a photo. What makes a render look real, and how to build one in six steps.

Real-time 3D rendering covers two different things: the live viewport you design in and the configurator or AR view you ship. Here’s how each one works.

Physical prototyping can cost tens of thousands per iteration, and leading design teams are using KeyShot to decide what actually needs to be built before committing to tooling and machine time.
