Frequently Asked Questions

LumenRT is a revolutionary real-time visualization software that enables you to bring your projects to life with cinematic quality images, videos, and real-time presentations of your infrastructure design models immersed within the context of lifelike digital nature. Used by many professionals in the AECO industry, LumenRT easily delivers environmentally coherent models and can speed stakeholder buy-in for all your projects. Unlike LumenRT, LumenRT for NVIDIA Omniverse works with iTwin models and massive amounts of engineering data, whereas LumenRT works with BIM and CAD files only.

LumenRT has been jointly developed with e-on software, which is widely acclaimed in the digital content creation (DCC) market, where its VUE and PlantFactory products are a mainstay among computer graphics (CG) professionals in the media and entertainment, science, and education industries. E-on’s offerings have been used in the making of numerous blockbuster films, including Minions, Jupiter Ascending, How To Train Your Dragon, Avatar, The Hunger Games, The Avengers, Hugo, and Terminator.

The price of Bentley LumenRT varies per region. While there are various types of licensing available, a common choice is the 12-month practitioner license offered through Bentley’s eStore. When you purchase through the eStore, you get a Virtuoso Subscription. This means you get the software and “Keys” (tokens) to redeem for customizable training, mentoring, and consulting services.

This product is accessed exclusively through the NVIDIA Omniverse Launcher which you can download and install from here:

After installing the launcher, you will see: NVIDIA Omniverse Screen

Please make sure you are signed into to your Bentley Connect client to access the LumenRT for NVIDIA Omniverse entitlement. If the entitlement is not enabled, you will be granted a trial license.
