Archi-Tech Talk E4: Foster + Partners Applied R+D Team Release Cyclops

Описание: Cyclops has arrived! 🚀

In this episode, we sit down with the Applied Research + Development (ARD) team at Foster + Partners to explore Cyclops — their brand new, free plugin for Grasshopper in Rhino 3D. Cyclops supercharges environmental analysis by leveraging the power of GPU-based raytracing using NVIDIA’s OptiX framework.

Developed with sustainability and performance in mind, Cyclops makes real-time feedback on environmental conditions like daylight and solar exposure radically faster and more accessible. Whether you're an architect, designer, or Grasshopper enthusiast, this is a major leap forward in computational design tools.
