New 3D world platform targeted towards business and education

Multiple users can meet, present ideas, communicate concepts and collaborate in a 3D world using videos, avatars, voice, chat and interactive 3D objects virtually from anywhere in the world.

Leveraging on their core rendering technology, EON Reality has released a new 3D world online platform; EON Coliseum, specifically targeted towards commercial business and education.

The application offers advanced interactive 3D tools based on real CAD data and can be used on a laptop as well as in a fully immersive 3D stereoscopic environment such as the EON Icube. Connected parties can select from a wide range of multimedia options in every session, from virtual classrooms to key boardroom meetings.

Getting Started with EON Coliseum

EON Coliseum is developed by EON Experience Lab, Singapore under the Innovation development scheme project supported by Economic Development Board, EDB. The technology roadmap and market positing was done in collaboration with the EON offices in Sweden and Irvine, California, USA.

Nuclear Plant Uses 3D Simulation to Visually Communicate Project Plans

During a shutdown a Nuclear Generation plant can cost its owners $800K per day in lost revenue. With multiple teams, working two twelve hour shifts over a month long shutdown period, planning and execution are critical to a projects’ successful completion.

Four massive transformers were swapped out while new deluge and firewall construction was being installed at a major Nuclear Plant in South Carolina. In order to clearly communicate the process for each work-shift, SiMT delivered a fully rendered interactive 3D visualization tool that provides concise animation of the major move-in and move-out activities along with construction and assembly operations. An add-a-shift or lose-a-shift control was added so that the project management team could adjust schedules due to inclement weather conditions or other unanticipated changes.

“The first phase of the project was to develop a 3D model of the work site including old and new transformers, roads, buildings and existing structures,” Michael Mazen, project co-ordinator at SiMT, explains. “Due to the sensitive nature of some components, a large laser scan was not feasible, so we had to develop the model from Google Earth and CAD data. Existing CAD data of the firewall assemblies and deluge systems were also modelled in 3D and included in the simulation object data base. The second phase was to begin linking the equipment movement and project activities into the simulation based on the information provided in the project plan,” Michael Mazen says.
