Unlock the Power of the Web Visualization for 3D
Application
Spatial Corp, the leading software development toolkit provider
for design, manufacturing and engineering solutions and a
subsidiary of Dassault Systèmes, announced today that it has added
HOOPS Communicator, developed by Tech Soft 3D, to complement and
extend its portfolio of component technologies. With the addition
of HOOPS Communicator to Spatial’s 3D components portfolio, Spatial
now enables web-based visualization of and interaction with 3D data
for a diverse range of design, engineering and manufacturing
workflows.
Adding HOOPS Communicator to Spatial’s product portfolio allows
its customers to expand their applications to the web while reusing
their IP from traditional desktop applications. As a result,
Spatial’s customers can leverage many new opportunities on the web,
including extended customer-reach, more access control, and less
costly distributions, updates and maintenance.
“We are excited to enhance our portfolio by adding HOOPS
Communicator. This addition enables Spatial customers to seamlessly
implement powerful web applications for various engineering
workflows, building on robust 3D modeling kernel and 3D InterOp
components for data conversion, preparation and reuse,” said
Jean-Marc Guillard, CEO, Spatial Corp.
One of Spatial’s newest customers is a vivid example of the
tight integration of HOOPS Communicator with the 3D modelers CGM
and ACIS as well as 3D InterOp. The customer plans to release a new
web-based application for architectural, engineering and
construction (AEC) workflows, which allows users to digitally
create, review and finalize designs for homes, buildings and plants
– all before costly construction begins – in collaboration with
stakeholders across globally distributed sites.
Additional examples of web-based workflows enabled by HOOPS
Communicator used in conjunction with Spatial’s 3D modelers CGM and
ACIS and 3D InterOp include:
- Virtual twin applications for numerous manufacturing processes
such as sheet metal fabrication, 3D printing and multi-axis
milling, as well as a wide range of robotic systems
- Collaborative inspection applications for parts and assemblies
with both geometry and product manufacturing information (PMI)
- On-demand catalogs for 3D parts and assemblies for diverse
kinds of industrial applications
Like HOOPS Visualize for developing native applications, which
Spatial has integrated with its SDKs and resold since 2012, HOOPS
Communicator provides comprehensive out-of-the-box API
functionality for a variety of engineering workflows on the web.
Such functionality avoids having to recreate the same functionality
in WebGL or with open-source frameworks. Furthermore, unlike OEM
solutions, HOOPS Communicator allows custom interaction with 3D
data.
Contact Spatial today to learn more about how HOOPS Communicator
can unlock the power of the web for 3D workflows.
