    Dive

    Dive

    Dive CAE is a cloud-native computational fluid dynamics software platform that enables engineers to simulate complex fluid behaviors, such as free-surface flow, multiphase interactions, heat transfer, and moving machinery, using a mesh-free Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method. It runs entirely in the browser and on high-performance computing infrastructure, so users don’t need local hardware or installation. The mesh-free approach allows for modeling of complex geometry, surface tension, non-Newtonian fluids, and transient flows without the time-consuming meshing and tuning required by conventional CFD. Onboarding is fast (typically under one day), and the software supports parallel design-of-experiment workflows that deliver multiple iterations in hours rather than days. Dive CAE emphasizes collaboration, license simplicity (one licence for all users), transparent cost control, data usage governance, and scalability via cloud infrastructure.

    Text2Mesh

    Text2Mesh

    Text2Mesh

    Text2Mesh produces color and geometric details over a variety of source meshes, driven by a target text prompt. Our stylization results coherently blend unique and ostensibly unrelated combinations of text, capturing both global semantics and part-aware attributes. Our framework, Text2Mesh, stylizes a 3D mesh by predicting color and local geometric details which conform to a target text prompt. We consider a disentangled representation of a 3D object using a fixed mesh input (content) coupled with a learned neural network, which we term neural style field network. In order to modify style, we obtain a similarity score between a text prompt (describing style) and a stylized mesh by harnessing the representational power of CLIP. Text2Mesh requires neither a pre-trained generative model nor a specialized 3D mesh dataset. It can handle low-quality meshes (non-manifold, boundaries, etc.) with arbitrary genus, and does not require UV parameterization.

The Xperia XZ Premium receives the 3D Creator as part of the Android 8.0 (Oreo) update. The first part of the scanning process is the calibration. The camera takes images as you circulate slowly around the object and an algorithm looks for characteristics that stand out in the images. Based on the camera orientation and captured images a point cloud is created. The point cloud is quite rough and has no color. Based on the point cloud information a mesh is created. The mesh is, simply put, a group of 3D points called vertices. Using the points from the point cloud the algorithm sculpts the mesh allowing it to shape itself after the scanned object.

    ContextCapture

    ContextCapture

    Bentley Systems

    Create 3D models from simple photographs and/or point clouds. Reality modeling is the process of capturing the physical reality of an infrastructure asset, creating a representation of it, and maintaining it through continuous surveys. Bentley's reality modeling software, ContextCapture, provides you with real-world digital context in the form of a 3D reality mesh. A reality mesh is a 3D model of real-world conditions that contains large amounts of triangles and image data. Each digital component can be automatically recognized and/or geospatially referenced, providing you with an intuitive and immersive way to navigate, find, view, and query your asset information. You can use reality meshes in many engineering, maintenance, or GIS workflows to provide precise real-world digital context for design, construction, and operations decisions. Overlapping photos from drones and ground-level imagery, supplemented by laser scans where needed.

    FieldView

    Intelligent Light

    Over the past two decades, software technologies have advanced greatly and HPC computing has scaled by orders of magnitude. Our human ability to comprehend simulation results has remained the same. Simply making plots and movies in the traditional way does not scale when dealing with multi-billion cell meshes or ten’s of thousands of timesteps. Automated solution assessment is accelerated when features and quantitative properties can be produced directly via eigen analysis or machine learning. Easy-to-use industry standard FieldView desktop coupled to the powerful VisIt Prime backend.
