One Click to High-End XR Design - The Future of Immersive Design

 

In the world of automotive, industrial, and product design, Autodesk VRED has long been the gold standard for high-end real-time visualization and dependable decision-making. But as design review processes shift toward immersive XR experiences, many teams face the same hurdles:

  • Limited device performance

  • Fragmented XR hardware ecosystems

  • Security concerns around sensitive 3D data

Hololight Stream Runtime solves these challenges - bringing Autodesk VRED’s exceptional visual quality directly into XR, instantly and effortlessly.

 

From Desktop to Headset in One Click

 

With Hololight Stream Runtime, streaming your Autodesk VRED scene into XR is as simple as pressing the Hololight Stream button inside the application.

  • No complex builds

  • No custom integrations

  • No compromises on quality

Once the runtime is installed on your PC or workstation, you just connect your XR headset via the Hololight Stream Client -  and your design is ready to explore in immersive XR.

 

 

Why Hololight Stream Runtime is a Game-Changer for Autodesk VRED Users

 

1. High-End Visual Quality in XR

Autodesk VRED is known for photorealistic rendering. Hololight Stream Runtime ensures you get the exact same visual fidelity in XR, with pixel streaming that preserves every detail and texture.

2. Device Agnostic Flexibility

Whether you use HoloLens 2, Meta Quest, HTC Vive Focus, PICO, or Apple Vision Pro - Hololight’s device-agnostic approach means you can stream from the same runtime environment to any major XR headset.

3. Secure by Design

In enterprise deployments, your 3D data never leaves your secure environment. There is no local storage or processing on the headset, making it ideal for industries where IP protection is non-negotiable.

4. Instant Collaboration

Invite colleagues or stakeholders to step into the same XR scene - review design variants, discuss adjustments, and make decisions faster than ever.

5. Accelerated Workflow

Streaming eliminates the need to export or optimize assets for specific devices. Designers stay in their familiar Autodesk VRED environment, while still accessing the freedom of wireless XR.

 

Use Cases: Where VRED Meets XR

  • Automotive Design Reviews – Walk around full-scale vehicles in XR, with real-time adjustments to lighting, materials, or configurations.

  • Product Visualization – Present complex consumer products in photorealistic XR to customers or internal teams.

  • Collaborative Engineering – Identify design challenges early with immersive, multi-user review sessions.

 

Conclusion: A Better Way to Design in XR

 

By combining Autodesk VRED’s visualization power with the ease and flexibility of Hololight Stream Runtime, design teams can finally unlock immersive workflows without technical roadblocks.
The result: faster decisions, higher-quality reviews, and a seamless path from concept to production.
