All you need to know about Lumion Subscriptions
As a 3D rendering software, Lumion requires an up-to-date Windows 10 64-bit or newer computer with a fast graphics card, ample memory, and stable internet connection.
Please make sure to check our system requirements to ensure you have the best possible experience. We've also put together a few hardware guides you might find helpful:
Lumion is not officially supported on Mac computers. We strongly advise running Lumion on Windows PCs as they typically can be configured with more powerful hardware that's needed for faster, efficient rendering. For more information about running Lumion on a Mac, please read this support article.
Lumion is compatible with all major CAD and 3D modeling software. Here's a complete overview.
Plus, with the free Lumion LiveSync plug-in, you can also create a real-time connection with your favorite CAD software that allows you to model and render at the same time and drive faster design decisions. This means that whenever you make changes to your 3D model, they will seamlessly be reflected in Lumion.
Lumion LiveSync is available for Sketchup, Revit, Archicad, Rhino, AutoCAD, Allplan, BricsCAD, Vectorworks, and many more.
With an active Lumion Subscription you'll never miss a beat. You'll always have an up-to-date version and easy access to the latest features and content at no additional cost.
