created solar assonometry

[ocraM999]

I was asked to produce some 'solar assonometries' of a model made with revit.
solar assonometries are seen showing only illuminated surfaces as if we looked at the model from the sun.
once defined the coordinates of the project,the north, the day and time of the sun can produce the views in question?
Thank you

I think not,
perhaps in 3d study

. already in 3ds .... Not in a design program. . .

I tried to import in 3ds a 3d and assign to the window instead of "camera" "sun"
in fact the view is positioned from the sun but I have not managed to zoom.
As for the design program which is revit, he gives you the opportunity to see on the property the sun exposure at a date hour.
As far as I have received requests from the most overwhelmed technical offices to see the property from the position of the sun yet no one has asked me and sincerely I do not see the usefulness

in ecotect, which is precisely an eco-sustainable design software, there are various possibilities to highlight the illuminated surfaces and those in shadow. also analysis of lighting, solar radiation, temperatures.

I don't know if you can see the pattern from the sun. Can you post an example of solar assonometry?

I have seen some reports on solar lighting, but always accompanied by graphs and drawings of the semisphere like that of revit with highlighted the position area of the sun during the year.
reports indicating the shadow that the new building would project on the building in front.
solar assonometries never.
Anyway, I got an idea, I'm trying to put it into practice and if the place works.

This is proof
simply rotate the asonometry and combine the edges of objects with the shadow

ps.
in this small test you could put transparent or semi-transparent objects and you would have seen the shadow on the floor

I think I'll manage like this.

ps consider that that type of display does not serve to hide the shadows but to see, at certain established hours, what surface or window is seen (so illuminated) from the sun, or if a wall covering a balcony... And what is it?

there is a certain illogicality in the thing
If I put my eye instead of the sun, my visual radius is combing with the illuminating radius so that the shadows can't see them.
Think of the camera flash, the shadow does a edge on the side of the person because the flash is moved little compared to the optical axis, if it were on the optical axis the shadow would be right behind the person and would not be seen
so if you want to see the shadows you have to stay somewhere else and not in the origin of the radius
