Autodesk to Acquire iLogic Technology from Logimetrix

By DE Editors

Autodesk, Inc. (San Rafael, CA) signed a definitive agreement to acquire the iLogic software and related technology from Logimetrix, Inc. (Windsor, Ontario, Canada). iLogic is Logimetrix's desktop rules-based design automation technology. Terms were not disclosed.

The agreement demonstrates Autodesk's commitment to providing a comprehensive Digital Prototyping solution to manufacturers of all sizes, giving them the ability to design, visualize, and simulate designs earlier in the process. The addition of the iLogic technology will strengthen the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping by bringing user-friendly tools for rules-based design and automation to mainstream manufacturers.

iLogic technology makes it easy for designers and engineers to capture design intent and automate common design tasks by creating "smart parts" that can embed higher levels of design intelligence directly into an Autodesk Inventor digital prototype, all without the need for programming knowledge.
