BUDAPEST, November 12, 2012 — GRAPHISOFT announced today that BIMx, its cutting-edge communication and presentation tool for BIM projects, is now available through the Amazon AppStore for Kindle Fire HD and Kindle Fire Gen 2.  Amazon AppStore is available to customers located in the United States, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, and United Kingdom.

BIMx is an interactive environment that allows users to explore full BIM models without holding a license of the professional authoring software in which the building model was originally created.  With BIMx, ArchiCAD users have been able to publish self-running BIMx models for their clients to run on desktop computers (Win/Mac); on iOS and Android devices, BIMx puts BIM into the hands of all stakeholders not actively involved in the actual creation of the BIM model such as contractors, builders, clients, owners, and principals of design practices as well.

BIMx Community on Facebook

The integrated BIMx community on Facebook is the central hub for sharing interactive 3D building models. Architects holding a BIMx license — either commercial or educational license — can publish their models directly to this online community. In addition, ArchiCAD users holding a full commercial BIMx license and an active Software Services Agreement can benefit from a cloud service exclusively provided by GRAPHISOFT for private model transfer. For more information, please contact your local ArchiCAD provider.
