Digital Immersion Unveils 3D Software Solution for Autodesk Users


Digital Immersion's Presenter 3D Software Enhances Autodesk Inventor

Novi, Michigan - October 15, 2002 - Digital Immersion Software Corp. today announced the immediate availability of its latest Presenter 3D, the ideal companion software for Autodesk Inventor users. Presenter 3D software delivers increased functionality and simplicity to product designers and manufacturers who require more flexible and robust product image-editing capabilities not found in today's computer-aided design (CAD) or typical visualization software solutions. With the Presenter 3D, companies benefit by increased innovation; faster time to market; higher quality products; and higher revenues by better product acceptance in the marketplace.

Manufacturers are rapidly migrating from a traditional mass production style to one of mass customization and specialized one-off product design. This has led to the need for a new class of product design data image-editing tools. Increasingly, users want access to the power of professional level products without the steep learning curve. After working with CAD drawings, designers and engineers discover that the CAD solution is unable to meet their needs to show the actual state at photographic quality of the finished product to the extended development teams.

Presenter 3D, a full-function tool, allows the user to create realistic images, pictures, and animations directly from CAD data. Using the product is easy because it supports native file geometry and direct interface with Autodesk Inventor. This application allows the design team to create product data that the end user can easily see and understand. The result is less confusion and misunderstandings, faster feedback, quicker buy-in for a better design process and product, and increased profits.

"The latest Presenter 3D offers the tools that a design engineer needs to communicate a design or idea, without having to be a graphic artist," said Alan Rennick, senior project engineer of Easton Sports, Inc. "The process of applying material colors and decals to a product design for evaluation is a snap. This ability alone can cut product development time by 30 percent."

"Our customers have asked for the ability to easily create photo realistic images and animations from their parts and assemblies," said Terry Cotent, vice president product development of Digital Immersion. "Presenter 3D enables the Autodesk Inventor user to quickly and easily create real-time, realistic 3D imagery and animations that would normally take days and weeks to produce."
