SHEFFIELD, UK (27 March 2009) - LightWork Design, the world's leading
supplier of rendering solutions for developers of advanced 3D computer
graphics software, is pleased to announce that the latest release of
TurboCAD® Pro v16, from IMSI/Design, incorporates new updated LightWorks
functionality.

The new product release was announced earlier this week and rendering
enhancements within the release include LightWorks global illumination,
final gather and ambient occlusion - which facilitates a simpler and
faster creation of more accurate and realistic renderings - as well as the
addition of numerous new material shaders.  David Forrester, Managing
Director at LightWork Design commented, "We are pleased to see the
addition of the latest LightWorks technology within TurboCAD Pro and to
see the real advances that this makes to the product.  We look forward to
seeing more TurboCAD entries within our LightWorks image competition in
the months to come as users take advantage of these improvements."

Bob Mayer, Chief Operating Officer at IMSI/Design added, "LightWork
Design's development and support staff were instrumental in providing
advice and assistance throughout this release.  It was easy to update our
software libraries to the latest LightWorks v7.9 version.  This allowed us
to focus more time and effort on improving our user interface, adding a
style manager with preset lighting conditions, incorporating context
sensitive help, and more.  Customers love the new depth of field, lens
flare, and other post-processing capabilities; the advanced shaders such
as Glossy, Blurred Mirror, and Blurred Glass:  they dramatically reduce
the time and difficulty in setting up a quality render."

LightWorks is now in its 20th year and has been integrated within TurboCAD
since rendering was first implemented a number of years ago.  Over this
time, the product has developed to provide users with greater
photorealistic capabilities and users have produced some outstanding work.
