Engineous Software and Visual Collaboration Technologies Join Visualization Forces

By DE Editors

Engineous Software (Cary, NC), a provider of integration, automation, and design optimization software, has announced its partnership with Visual Collaboration Technologies, Inc. (VCTI; Troy, MI). Through the agreement, Engineous and VCTI will integrate their technologies to bring VCTI's common visualization platform, VCollab, into Engineous' iSIGHT-FD multi-disciplinary design exploration system. Engineous has also joined VCTI's distributor network as a value added reseller (VAR) to deliver the joint solution.

"The integration of VCollab's 3D visualization capability and Engineous' iSIGHT-FD provides our customers with exciting possibilities for automating the CAE workflow and for handling large CAE results files," said Prasad Mandava, CEO and President of VCTI, "by automatically creating highly compressed 3D visual VCollab files from large multi-discipline analyses result files. The output will be 3D embedded decision making reports, for more effective design evaluation."

"Engineous has partnered with a number of vendors to seamlessly integrate their software with iSIGHT-FD," said Dr. Alex Van der Velden, VP, Engineering for Engineous Software. "The open integration framework we provide allows us to deliver solutions that our customers are missing, such as a common visualization platform to view CAE results."

Engineous Software, Inc. provides process integration and design optimization software solutions and services. The company's iSIGHT software integrates key steps in the product design process, then automates and executes those steps through design exploration tools like optimization, DOE, and DFSS techniques. VCTI's VCollab software is a multidisciplinary platform for CAD, CAM, and CAE visual collaboration. For more information, visit vcollab.com or engineous.com.
