"AutoVue 17.1 reaffirms Cimmetry's position as the leading provider of
Visualization and Collaboration technology in the market." said Pam Petropoulos
at Cimmetry Systems. "With support for native 2D/3D CAD, EDA & Office formats,
thin-client & desktop platform architectures, real-time & asynchronous
collaboration features, and integration with any host system, AutoVue truly is
the only one-stop-shop for any organization's visualization and collaboration
needs."
Today, product design and manufacturing cross the traditional boundaries between
engineering disciplines. Discrete goods, ranging in complexity from toasters to
automobiles, contain both mechanical components and electronics. Only AutoVue
provides the ability to view and collaborate on all product data: the 3D casings
and parts, the electronic boards and chips, the text-based BOMs and
specifications and the 2D manufacturing drawings and facility plans.
AutoVue allows users to view, markup and collaborate in real-time on 200 native
formats from a common user interface. Available as a Windows desktop application
or a thin-client server based solution, the product allows users to access and
provide feedback on critical product data, regardless of format, either locally
or over a network/Internet. The AutoVue API is also available to OEM partners
wishing to add visualization, markup and real-time collaboration capabilities to
their products.
