BIMx from Graphisoft is the ultimate Building Information Model (BIM) project presentation application featuring the BIMx Hyper-model, a unique technology for integrated 2D and 3D building project navigation. With the BIMx Hyper-model users experience smooth handling and exceptional performance. BIMx can tackle projects with complex 3D models and extensive 2D documentation.

The Graphisoft BIMx application provides access to the 3D view of any BIMx building model. With the Egress Recognition feature users can simply tap a door to walk through it and tap an object to approach it. Plus, Floor-Plan Cutaway allows for a look at things from a new perspective. With All-Round 3D Cutaways, users can cut through a section of the model with a slider, giving total clarity in spacial relations. BIMx models can be shared so clients can access individual BIMx Hyper-models (including 2D and 3D content) on any of their devices after their architects share designs with them.
