The future of CAD design is here

Unlock the power of NX Immersive Designer with the Sony XR headset 

Experience immersive technologies with the Sony XR headset, seamlessly integrated with Siemens CAD software to create truly immersive design workflows.

  • Interact with your designs in a fully-immersive 3D environment 
  • Enhance collaboration with real-time, augmented reality CAD modeling  
  • Streamline your workflows with cutting-edge Siemens VR visualization tools 

AR CAD

Augmented Reality (AR) is a key component of Extended Reality (XR) environments. The Sony XR headset offers significant benefits within these AR CAD environments by enhancing visualization and interaction with 3D models, while allowing users to maintain natural vision. 

Engineers can use AR CAD to overlay digital models onto physical spaces, enabling real-time inspection and modification. This leads to improved accuracy in design, faster identification of potential issues and more efficient collaboration among team members. 

As a result, AR CAD can streamline the prototyping process, reduce costs and accelerate project timelines by providing a more intuitive and immersive way to interact with complex designs in context.

CAD and immersive technologies: No longer just a vision—now a reality

Step inside your CAD designs like never before

  • Expand your workspace with virtual monitors: Transform your workstation with multiple virtual monitors in NX Immersive Designer. Work seamlessly using both a traditional keyboard and mouse while leveraging an expansive, immersive CAD environment.
  • VR modeling and editing in real time in the immersive environment: Stay within NX Immersive Designer and make direct, synchronous changes to your 3D models. Design, study and manipulate objects in a fully interactive VR visualization space—without disrupting your workflow.
  • Intuitive hand controller interaction: Enhance productivity with precise, hands-on model editing. Modify shape, positioning and appearance effortlessly using intuitive VR hand controllers for a more fluid, natural design experience.
  • Immersive mechatronics animations: Experience your designs in motion with kinematic animations. Gain real-world insights from human-scale simulations, reducing the need for costly physical prototypes while improving design validation.
  • Revolutionize your design process with NX Immersive Designer and the Sony XR head-mounted display: Bring your CAD models to life, collaborate more effectively and unlock the full potential of immersive technology in engineering and product development.
  • Enhance design, collaboration and visualization processes: Immersive CAD technology offers significant advantages to the AEC & BIM industries with virtual reality architecture. Using VR and AR, architects can simulate construction sequences, helping teams identify and address logistical challenges and safety risks before actual construction begins. This allows for improved planning, more efficient scheduling and a safer construction environment.
