(Updated) E-on Software has posted a number of sample renders showing the type of plants and vegetation that can be created with The Plant Factory.

E-on Software announced that they are developing a plant modeling and rendering system designed to work with various CG applications. Features include:
  • Multi-Platform/Multi-Discipline – operates across all CG platforms including real-time, streaming, and offline rendering systems and caters to the needs of CG, SFX, Landscaping, GeoDesign, Architecture and Gaming
  • Botanical Coherency – allows the creation of more botanically accurate plant appearances and behaviors
  • Precise Control – users can create plants of any desired shape, appearance, and behavior using simple building blocks
  • Massive Populations – builds on E-on’s EcoSystems to create landscapes containing millions of plants

I think there needs to be a better image to use the slogan “The Best Plant Technology On Earth!” Having said that…curious to see what they’ve come up with!

Not overly impressed with the realism of the plants and trees created with “The Best Plant Technology On Earth!” but maybe its in poor non-artistic hands
