3. A 3D file in a supported format.

Installation
If you have never installed Prospect before on your Windows desktop machine, please go to irisvr.com to create an account and download the software. 

1. Download the IrisVR Prospect App

Go to irisvr.com/downloads, sign up, and click "Download Prospect" Close any 3D modeling applications (Revit, Rhino, Navisworks, etc.) that may be open on your machine Once downloaded, double-click on ProspectSetup.exe to begin the installation process. Select which plugins you'd like to use with Prospect and click Install

2. Launch the Software

Log in with your username (email) and password, or continue as a guest If you're on a Workstation Subscription, enter your Workstation Key (this can be accessed by your Admin in the IrisVR Account Management Portal) Begin using Prospect by importing a file into the Project Library. Learn more about using the Project Library here.

Plugin updates 

As the plugins for Revit, Rhino, and Navisworks are installed concurrently with Prospect, you will need to re-install Prospect and check off the appropriate software should you upgrade your version. This is not necessary for OBJ, FBX or Sketchup files as they do not utilize a plugin.

If you neglected to close these applications during the installation process, simply close them, close Prospect, then relaunch Prospect; the add-ins will install automatically.
