Software OEM Adobe | Search results for "industrial"

Bit off topic for this blog, but I'll mention it all the same. In the run up to a name change on October 1st 2008 (when they dump the name Matsushita Electric Industrial and just become Panasonic), an on-line museum of design has opened. Not sure where in Europe it is coming from, but its an interesting selection of Panasonic designs through the last 90 years. During the time that I tested radios for Radio Netherlands "Shopping List" I recall that the Panasonic short wave portables were usually robust but not at the leading edge...perhaps with a few exceptions. For a time the RF-4900 with its digital frequency readout was a great tabletop and then there was the RF9000 (1982-1985) which cost something like 3000 Euros in its day and was basically designed to show what Panasonic could do in the labs. I am a bit surprised they didn't pick that for the on-line museum. It was an amazing set - I wonder what kind of customer they had in mind? In Holland they put a few into luxury yachts. By the way, the museum is an interesting tour, but the navigation is a nightmare - Flash design on steroids. And sadly, no search, so the content is there, but the context is often missing. Worth a short visit though. oem software cheap software

The EON Touchlight development unit is aimed at assisting the IDC to generate additional R&D projects with Microsoft and other commercial end Users. The final delivery date for this unit needs to be determined with Microsoft. The Touchlight represents a novel touch screen technology that aims at providing a natural and intuitive bare hand interaction with 3d objects. TouchLight uses image processing techniques to combine the output of two video cameras placed behind a semi-transparent plane in front of the user. The resulting image shows objects that are on the plane. This technique is well suited for application with a projection screen material (DNP HoloScreen) which permits projection onto a transparent sheet of acrylic plastic in normal indoor lighting conditions. The resulting touch screen display system transforms an otherwise normal sheet of acrylic plastic into a high bandwidth input/output surface suitable for gesture-based interaction. Image processing techniques are detailed, and several novel capabilities of the system are outlined. For further details please see attached video clip: http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=19174 7 EON I-Auditorium 8 EON Application areas Architectural Walk through - Architects and interior designers can communicate their designs to their clients through active real time walk through. While using the Icube, the customer is immersed in the environment and can walk or fly through the building, while selecting the right color for the walls and different design options. • Design Reviews - The ICUBE is the optimal tool used for each step in the process of the 'birth of a car' showing products in a scale 1:1 and enabling a bright and high-resolution visualization of Digital Mock-Ups (DMUs). The Cube Reality is also used in engineering evaluations allowing, for example, a better insight in the position of the different components under the hood. Installation difficulties and servicing issues can be detected long before the first prototype is manufactured. Rather than cutting metal, let virtual reality do the work for you. Use your creativity to make new products and let Cube Reality show you how these products will look in real life. Using EON Icube and EON Studio, you can interact with your products, choose from different design options, and yet maintain a realistic look. • Human Factors Studies/Tracking - EON Icube has the ability to integrate various tracking systems such as Intersense IS-900. Digital humans can be incorporated into the simulation in with full biomechanical modeling. Kinematics and inverse of kinematics are activated and the digital avatar becomes alive. Now, you can send this digital soldier to your vehicle, your battlefield, or to any other environment. One may also embed various cameras into the digital soldier's eyes, connect those into a head mounted display (HMD), and see what the soldier sees. • Plant lay-out - The ICUBE is used to address difficult layout decisions that could not otherwise be visualized. Imagine rearranging a plant layout interactively as a team effort. Instead of simple CAD models that show wire frame diagrams, the ICUBE shows a completely realistic rendered (i.e., colors, shading, and lighting) model. Participants can together select the plant area, choose the appropriate machines and components, arrange them in space, measure and see if they have sufficient space and explore a virtual tour in the planned space. • Other applications - Examples of other applications are: Scientific Visualization, Virtual Museums, Driving Simulation/Flight Simulation, Research, Medical imaging and visualization, Sales and product presentations, Event Presentations & Virtual Prototyping. 9 EON Software and Content Creation Tools The following software is included: Application Software - EON Professional EON Professional offers a robust set of features, building on the success of EON Studio TM, designed to meet specific application needs. The software enables the highest level of photo realism with the real-time Visual Effects Features, support for many native CAD and 3D/2D formats through the CAD feature including Catia, 3DMax, Maya etc. The Physics feature allows users to simulate complex mechanical systems in real-time and the Human feature allows for integration of highly realistic moving humans into EON applications. Finally, the new SDK feature allows advanced system integrators to implement support for their software and hardware within the EON Professional framework. - EON Icube 4 Wall Software (includes EON Studio) EON Icube software is an extension of EON Professional and includes features for interfacing with advanced display and integrated Virtual Reality systems. With Multi Wall Cluster Visualization, simulation can be viewed on several monitors simultaneously, each one displaying a different viewpoint of the scene, by using a cluster of fully synchronized PCs linked together in a local area network. The software supports edge blending and provides the capability to create full Icube Stereo images. The EON ICUBE Software also integrates seamlessly with all EON tools such as EON CAD for easy conversion of data and models from one publishing option to another as the same core data is used whether viewing in the ICUBE or on the Internet. The EON ICUBE Software Functionality includes: • Alignment of viewing frustum between view ports for perpendicular screens depending on tracked viewing position • Adjustment of Stereo-separation based on head position (viewing angle) • Support for all major types of tracking systems; such as optical, magnetic, ultrasonic and inertia based • Support for Wand interaction devices • Easy to use GUI to input screen dimensions, tracking system position and stereo-parameters for real-time viewport calculations • Easy-to-use interface that allows to open up any existing EON application using templates showing a fully immersive application • Allows for true scalability from web deployment to highest level of immersive device - EON Server EON Server is a modular based service for managing large product data sets, scientific models and repositories. See also Appendix I for more information. - EON SDK EON SDK is a C++ programming tool allowing for building custom run-time or design-time extension to EON Studio or Professional. EON’s Unique Advantages: • Scalable solution EON Products can be updated continuously through the Internet and extended on line. Customers can select products and be able to visually configure in real-time any accessory package or color, resulting in millions of potential combinations. • Dynamic loading and database integration EON has the capability to provide Dynamic loading of large textures, geometries and other content data from the server. In short, complex configurations can be built without having to download all components in advance, and any parts changes can be done on the server without modifying the configuration application. This is absolutely necessary for more sizable vehicle configurations, as it keeps the application size small for the end-user, and cost-effective to maintain and update changes. EON Server is a modular server-based solution for large 3D content and databases on the web and offline. • Real Time Texture Mapping and Scaling EON has a new feature of adapting textures in real-time such as mapping and scaling. This allows for enhanced design reviews in terms of packaging, surfacing etc. • Complete 3D configuration product EON Products provides a revolutionary approach to customers, employing a visually-driven sales configuration tool. Coupled with the integration capability, the financial estimator and quote process and customized brochure the sales process, is significantly streamlined. • Rapid content creation tools EON's ease of use, rapid interaction creation and re-usability provides tremendous content production cost savings. EON's content creation process utilizes a "drag and drop" approach of predefined behaviors, which explains the rapid content creation results. EON Studio is the complete development tool. • High visual quality & detailed models EON can render large geometry and detailed models. EON also has a proprietary advanced rendering engine (pixel and vertex shaders, reflections, shadows, environmental mapping, progressive rendering etc.). • Support for advanced peripherals EON automatically supports advanced peripherals such as joystick, pinch gloves, head mounted displays, voice command and control, and tracker system. This means that, for example, at an exhibit a customer will be able to interact with models in a Virtual Reality mode by either "grabbing" a car with the hands or joystick, or providing voice commands etc. • Support for advanced multi-media EON automatically supports video clips (.avi mpg movie etc) inside the simulation. For example, a real movie can be displayed on the DVD screen in the virtual car. EON automatically supports 3D sound, meaning that any sound will come from the correct direction, such as opening the left window while experiencing the car interior in the kiosk, the sound will come from the left speaker. • Web solution EON has a component base Internet solution, similar to e.g. Shockwave that utilizes a plug-in based viewer for users who are able to download and install a viewer. The installation is done once and then content can be viewed from multiple sources and applications built on EON. In case there is a software update only those components updated are replaced on the Client. • Support for stereo displays multi-wall systems Support for high resolution Stereo (Quad buffer) and multi wall high quality projections and stereo displays. This is possible, thanks to EON Icube, as it provides seamless publishing of high quality stereoscopic data on large screens for exhibits or product launches. • Proven track record of large scale implementations EON has a proven track record of creating the largest commercial 3D sales application deployments for companies such as: Office Depot, Suzuki, Tetra-Pak, Dell, Lexmark, Canon, Hon, Samsung, Shimano, Audi, Nokia etc. EON Reality provides the only solution that has all the technical features required to create an integrated, scalable, high quality 3D Sales Application.

A typical EON Application consists of a number of 3D objects placed in a 3D environment. Distribution of an EON Applications is straightforward over the web, and by using the EON Server technology it’s very easy to distribute both large and configurable EON Applications. EON Server consists of two different parts, EON Dynamic Load and EON Track. EON Dynamic Load handles how parts, e.g. different 3D models, of an EON Application is downloaded and integrated into the 3D environment. EON Track enables tracking of user-defined events in a server-based database. In order to use the EON Server services there is also an EON License Server. This is available on the Internet or as a Stand-alone license, controlled by EON Reality and validates all use of the EON Server technology. EON DYNAMIC LOAD In order to use EON Dynamic Load, parts of an EON Application must be saved as EON prototypes (See EON Studio documentation for more info on EON prototypes). Each prototype contains any kind of EON functionality like 3D geometry, textures, behavior, scripting etc. The prototypes are stored in a prototype library files and placed on any web server or a hard drive. When the EON Application is running any number of prototype files may be downloaded and added to the running EON Application. It is possible to both load and unload (remove) the prototypes from a running EON Application. DISTRIBUTION OF LARGE EON APPLICATIONS Due to Internet bandwidth limitations it does take long time to download some large 3D applications. If the EON Application is larger than a couple of hundred kilobytes, users may find it time consuming to download. By using the EON Dynamic Load service it is possible to split the EON Application into smaller prototypes, typically 40-100 kilobytes each, and download the prototypes one after another. Each prototype can contain any EON functionality and all interactivity embedded in the prototype will be working as soon as it is downloaded. By using a sorted order of the download of the prototypes the 3D environment will be built in an attractive and functional way for the end user. CONFIGURABLE EON APPLICATIONS By using the EON Dynamic Load service it is not only possible to download predefined prototypes and embed in a 3D environment, it is also possible to let the user decide which prototype to download, and also unload any prototype. This creates limitless combinations of the 3D content in a running EON Application. Since the prototypes may be used in different EON Applications, it is very simple to reuse models. APPLICATION AREAS The number of application areas for EON Dynamic Load is very large, here is a short list of some typical applications that may be created. Remember that the number of objects that may be loaded is limitless; a very large catalog of 3D objects may be used as a basis for configuration. • Furniture configurator. Select a number of furniture objects in a regular web catalog, add them to an EON Application as prototypes, place them, select colors etc and create your own new office/room. • Home Builder configurator. When building new houses the customers always have to make a number of decisions like wallpapers, floors, kitchen cabinets etc. All these decisions can be made on the Internet and saved together with the order information. • Car or Motorcycle configurator. See how your car and the price changes as you decide which options you want. • Boat configurator. Boats are usually luxury and have a number of different options which all may be configured in 3D. • Large buildings/constructions. Download large buildings or constructions in small parts and let the user see the 3D environment grow as more details are downloaded. • Training applications for complex maintenance procedures with large machinery and equipment. E.g. machine tools, aircraft etc. USING EON DYNAMIC LOAD In order to use EON Dynamic Load on-line the following is required: • A valid license in the EON Server License Server • A number of prototype library files and/or texture files • A web server to host the prototype library files • An EON Application that uses the DynamicPrototype Node • Embedding the EON Application in a host software that can handle ActiveX controls, usually embedded in an html page using e,g, Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator PROTOTYPE LIBRARY FILES Prototype library files are created in EON Studio and are the same kind of prototype library files introduced with EON Studio 2.5. The file extension for these files is .eop. In order to create a prototype library file the steps must be performed: 1. Select a frame node in the simulation tree as start node for the prototype 2. Create a prototype of this start node by right clicking and select Create Prototype… 3. Select the Prototypes tab on a component window. If a component window is not open, then select New Component Window from the Window menu 4. Click New… in the Components - Prototype window 5. Select a file name and click Save 6. Drag the prototype from the local prototype window to the Component – Prototype window to store the prototype in the prototype library file. Only one prototype must be stored in each prototype library file. TEXTURES EON Dynamic Load also allows for switching textures. The use of textures is similar to prototypes, except the textures are created in other software such as e.g. Photoshop. WEB SERVER All prototype library files must be stored on a web server provided by the companies that are using the EON Server services. Any kind of web server can be used for this purpose. EON Server services uses the http protocol (TCP port 80) for downloading prototype library files in order to avoid firewall problems. The prototype library files and texture files must then reside in a base directory or any subdirectory below this base directory on a web server. The base directory is defined in the EON License Server. EON APPLICATION The EON Application will use the DynamicPrototype node for loading dynamic prototype files. This node has a PrototypeName field that holds the name of the prototype library file. This name may be set from inside EON Studio, which means that the prototype library file will be loaded upon start of the EON Application, or left empty and filled with a valid prototype library filename when the EON Application is running. When the EON Application is running it is always possible to change the PrototypeName field that means a new prototype library file will be downloaded and inserted to the running EON Application. There are also a number of different ways to control the download order (using script) and track current download status. In most cases a combination of logic between nodes, script nodes and JavaScript on a web page is combined to handle the logic for which prototype library files to download. EMBEDDING THE EON APPLICATION In order to use Dynamic Load services the EonX ActiveX control must be embedded in host software. Typical EON Applications that use the EON Server services places the EonX control on a web page. Both Internet explorer (4.0 or higher) and Netscape Navigator (4.04 or higher) are supported on the MS Windows platform. EON Applications are embedded the same way either they use EON Dynamic Load or not, there’s just one extra parameter passed to the EonX control, the base directory on the web server where the prototype library files are placed. The new enhanced EON Web Publisher released with EON Studio 3.0 creates all necessary code for publishing, only the base directory is necessary to set. Most web based EON Applications utilizing the EON Server services also need some control logic on the web page. The recommended way is to use JavaScript on the web page combined with in and out events from the EON Application. This way a response from the web server (generating web page(s)) can include references to prototype library files, which might be selected by the end user and downloaded/included in the EON Application. EON TRACK EON Track is a service that stores user-defined text in a database. The basic service includes possibility to store this text in a SQL database hosted by EON Reality. In EON Studio there is a node to handle this, Tracker. This node has five text fields that can be set with any kind of text and sent to the database using the SendInfoFields event. It is also possible to customize the behavior of the Tracker node in order to connect to any kind of database that can be reached through Internet. EON Reality offers this customization on consultant basis. The main purpose of this node is to track specific information about what the end user does while using the EON Application. This is similar to “banner clicking” where some company have to pay a small amount of money every time someone clicks on an advertising banner on a web page. However, the EON Track service also offers possibility to store any kind of selections or other events that the end user generates. A possible use for the five text fields in the Tracker node could be: 1. Name of the EON Application. If a user has more than one EON Application on the web, this will identify which of them that was used for this track record. Example: Car and Motorcycle for a Car or Motorcycle EON Application. 2. Now we assume we are using the motorcycle EON Application. Then the next text field could hold the brand of the Motorcycle selected. Example: Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Harley Davidson, Triumph etc. 3. Lets say we picked a Suzuki motorcycle, in this case we want to know which model # was picked which e.g. could be any of GS750ES, GSX1100EF, GS1100G, GSX1100G etc.. 4. After selecting the favorite model (GS1100G) we’re about to select a part of this, let’s say we select the gas tank, which would be the fourth text field. 5. Finally we select a color of the gas tank, could be red and black. The example above shows one way to fill the fields on the database. The customer (who designs the EON Application) can then log into the database over the web and see statistics for selection the end users has made. It’s possible to see favorite colors etc. It is also possible to build a solution where counts on specific brands are made for further business. EON LICENSE SERVER The different EON Server on-line solutions are all using EON License Server, which is a client-server based solution for licensing the technologies. The EON License Server keeps track of number of sessions that is used by the license. It is possible to set a maximum number of sessions per month, or just a maximum number of sessions per license. The system also provides for possibility to order new amount of number of sessions. Each session is a start of an EON Application, usually when the end user goes to a web page containing an EON Application. The business model is based on a maximum number of sessions per month for a specific fee. The EON License server has two kinds of users available for customers, Provider User and Provider Administrator. The Provider User can only look at available sessions and other information, while the Provider Administrator can add/delete Provider Users and also order more sessions. For off-line use a traditional EON Flex-LM node locked license is needed. cheap software oem software

Active and passive stereo display technology fits in here since they represent a very bright and homogeneous stereoscopic picture in a full pixel dissolving. Due to the extremely high separation of the individual stereoscopic pictures, perception of depth is not impaired by double contours. Furthermore, no compromises are required between stereoscopic mode and resolution. With these qualities active stereo display technology creates new prerequisites for image generation in a visual High Fidelity quality.

While using the Icube, the customer is immersed in the environment and can walk or fly through the building, while selecting the right color for the walls and different design options. • Design Reviews - The ICUBE is the optimal tool used for each step in the process of the 'birth of a car' showing products in a scale 1:1 and enabling a bright and high-resolution visualization of Digital Mock-Ups (DMUs). The Cube Reality is also used in engineering evaluations allowing, for example, a better insight in the position of the different components under the hood. Installation difficulties and servicing issues can be detected long before the first prototype is manufactured. Rather than cutting metal, let virtual reality do the work for you. Use your creativity to make new products and let Cube Reality show you how these products will look in real life. Using EON Icube and EON Studio, you can interact with your products, choose from different design options, and yet maintain a realistic look. • Human Factors Studies/Tracking - EON Icube has the ability to integrate various tracking systems such as Intersense IS-900. Digital humans can be incorporated into the simulation in with full biomechanical modeling. Kinematics and inverse of kinematics are activated and the digital avatar becomes alive. Now, you can send this digital soldier to your vehicle, your battlefield, or to any other environment. One may also embed various cameras into the digital soldier's eyes, connect those into a head mounted display (HMD), and see what the soldier sees. • Plant lay-out - The ICUBE is used to address difficult layout decisions that could not otherwise be visualized. Imagine rearranging a plant layout interactively as a team effort. Instead of simple CAD models that show wire frame diagrams, the ICUBE shows a completely realistic rendered (i.e., colors, shading, and lighting) model. Participants can together select the plant area, choose the appropriate machines and components, arrange them in space, measure and see if they have sufficient space and explore a virtual tour in the planned space. • Other applications - Examples of other applications are: Scientific Visualization, Virtual Museums, Driving Simulation/Flight Simulation, Research, Medical imaging and visualization, Sales and product presentations, Event Presentations & Virtual Prototyping. 7 EON Software and Content Creation Tools The following software is included: Application Software - EON Professional EON Professional offers a robust set of features, building on the success of EON Studio TM, designed to meet specific application needs.

Finally, the new SDK feature allows advanced system integrators to implement support for their software and hardware within the EON Professional framework. - EON Icube 4 Wall Software (includes EON Studio) EON Icube software is an extension of EON Professional and includes features for interfacing with advanced display and integrated Virtual Reality systems. With Multi Wall Cluster Visualization, simulation can be viewed on several monitors simultaneously, each one displaying a different viewpoint of the scene, by using a cluster of fully synchronized PCs linked together in a local area network. The software supports edge blending and provides the capability to create full Icube Stereo images. The EON ICUBE Software also integrates seamlessly with all EON tools such as EON CAD for easy conversion of data and models from one publishing option to another as the same core data is used whether viewing in the ICUBE or on the Internet. The EON ICUBE Software Functionality includes: • Alignment of viewing frustum between view ports for perpendicular screens depending on tracked viewing position • Adjustment of Stereo-separation based on head position (viewing angle) • Support for all major types of tracking systems; such as optical, magnetic, ultrasonic and inertia based • Support for Wand interaction devices • Easy to use GUI to input screen dimensions, tracking system position and stereo-parameters for real-time viewport calculations • Easy-to-use interface that allows to open up any existing EON application using templates showing a fully immersive application • Allows for true scalability from web deployment to highest level of immersive device - EON Server EON Server is a modular server based service for managing large product data sets, scientific models and repositories. See also Appendix I for more information. - EON SDK EON SDK is a C++ programming tool allowing for building custom run-time or design-time extension to EON Studio or Professional. EON’s Unique Advantages: • Scalable solution EON Products can be updated continuously through the Internet and extended on line. Customers can select products and be able to visually configure in real-time any accessory package or color, resulting in millions of potential combinations. • Dynamic loading and database integration EON has the capability to provide Dynamic loading of large textures, geometries and other content data from the server. In short, complex configurations can be built without having to download all components in advance, and any parts changes can be done on the server without modifying the configuration application. This is absolutely necessary for more sizable vehicle configurations, as it keeps the application size small for the end-user, and cost-effective to maintain and update changes. EON Server is a modular server-based solution for large 3D content and databases on the web and offline. • Real Time Texture Mapping and Scaling EON has a new feature of adapting textures in real-time such as mapping and scaling. This allows for enhanced design reviews in terms of packaging, surfacing etc. • Complete 3D configuration product EON Products provides a revolutionary approach to customers, employing a visually-driven sales configuration tool. Coupled with the integration capability, the financial estimator and quote process and customized brochure the sales process, is significantly streamlined. • Rapid content creation tools EON's ease of use, rapid interaction creation and re-usability provides tremendous content production cost savings. EON's content creation process utilizes a "drag and drop" approach of predefined behaviors, which explains the rapid content creation results. EON Studio is the complete development tool. • High visual quality & detailed models EON can render large geometry and detailed models. EON also has a proprietary advanced rendering engine (pixel and vertex shaders, reflections, shadows, environmental mapping, progressive rendering etc.). • Support for advanced peripherals EON automatically supports advanced peripherals such as joystick, pinch gloves, head mounted displays, voice command and control, and tracker system. This means that, for example, at an exhibit a customer will be able to interact with models in a Virtual Reality mode by either "grabbing" a car with the hands or joystick, or providing voice commands etc. • Support for advanced multi-media EON automatically supports video clips (.avi mpg movie etc) inside the simulation. For example, a real movie can be displayed on the DVD screen in the virtual car. EON automatically supports 3D sound, meaning that any sound will come from the correct direction, such as opening the left window while experiencing the car interior in the kiosk, the sound will come from the left speaker. • Web solution EON has a component base Internet solution, similar to e.g. Shockwave that utilizes a plug-in based viewer for users who are able to download and install a viewer. The installation is done once and then content can be viewed from multiple sources and applications built on EON. In case there is a software update only those components updated are replaced on the Client. • Support for stereo displays multi-wall systems Support for high resolution Stereo (Quad buffer) and multi wall high quality projections and stereo displays. This is possible, thanks to EON Icube, as it provides seamless publishing of high quality stereoscopic data on large screens for exhibits or product launches. • Proven track record of large scale implementations EON has a proven track record of creating the largest commercial 3D sales application deployments for companies such as: Office Depot, Suzuki, Tetra-Pak, Dell, Lexmark, Canon, Hon, Samsung, Shimano, Audi, Nokia etc. EON Reality provides the only solution that has all the technical features required to create an integrated, scalable, high quality 3D Sales Application.

A typical EON Application consists of a number of 3D objects placed in a 3D environment. Distribution of an EON Applications is straightforward over the web, and by using the EON Server technology it’s very easy to distribute both large and configurable EON Applications. EON Server consists of two different parts, EON Dynamic Load and EON Track. EON Dynamic Load handles how parts, e.g. different 3D models, of an EON Application is downloaded and integrated into the 3D environment. EON Track enables tracking of user-defined events in a server-based database. In order to use the EON Server services there is also an EON License Server. This is available on the Internet or as a Stand-alone license, controlled by EON Reality and validates all use of the EON Server technology. EON DYNAMIC LOAD In order to use EON Dynamic Load, parts of an EON Application must be saved as EON prototypes (See EON Studio documentation for more info on EON prototypes). Each prototype contains any kind of EON functionality like 3D geometry, textures, behavior, scripting etc. The prototypes are stored in a prototype library files and placed on any web server or a hard drive. When the EON Application is running any number of prototype files may be downloaded and added to the running EON Application. It is possible to both load and unload (remove) the prototypes from a running EON Application. DISTRIBUTION OF LARGE EON APPLICATIONS Due to Internet bandwidth limitations it does take long time to download some large 3D applications. If the EON Application is larger than a couple of hundred kilobytes, users may find it time consuming to download. By using the EON Dynamic Load service it is possible to split the EON Application into smaller prototypes, typically 40-100 kilobytes each, and download the prototypes one after another. Each prototype can contain any EON functionality and all interactivity embedded in the prototype will be working as soon as it is downloaded. By using a sorted order of the download of the prototypes the 3D environment will be built in an attractive and functional way for the end user. CONFIGURABLE EON APPLICATIONS By using the EON Dynamic Load service it is not only possible to download predefined prototypes and embed in a 3D environment, it is also possible to let the user decide which prototype to download, and also unload any prototype. This creates limitless combinations of the 3D content in a running EON Application. Since the prototypes may be used in different EON Applications, it is very simple to reuse models. APPLICATION AREAS The number of application areas for EON Dynamic Load is very large, here is a short list of some typical applications that may be created. Remember that the number of objects that may be loaded is limitless; a very large catalog of 3D objects may be used as a basis for configuration. • Furniture configurator. Select a number of furniture objects in a regular web catalog, add them to an EON Application as prototypes, place them, select colors etc and create your own new office/room. • Home Builder configurator. When building new houses the customers always have to make a number of decisions like wallpapers, floors, kitchen cabinets etc. All these decisions can be made on the Internet and saved together with the order information. • Car or Motorcycle configurator. See how your car and the price changes as you decide which options you want. • Boat configurator. Boats are usually luxury and have a number of different options which all may be configured in 3D. • Large buildings/constructions. Download large buildings or constructions in small parts and let the user see the 3D environment grow as more details are downloaded. • Training applications for complex maintenance procedures with large machinery and equipment. E.g. machine tools, aircraft etc. USING EON DYNAMIC LOAD In order to use EON Dynamic Load on-line the following is required: • A valid license in the EON Server License Server • A number of prototype library files and/or texture files • A web server to host the prototype library files • An EON Application that uses the DynamicPrototype Node • Embedding the EON Application in a host software that can handle ActiveX controls, usually embedded in an html page using e,g, Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator LICENSE The license can be set up in a number of different ways, please see the EON License Chapter for more information. PROTOTYPE LIBRARY FILES Prototype library files are created in EON Studio and are the same kind of prototype library files introduced with EON Studio 2.5. The file extension for these files is .eop. In order to create a prototype library file the steps must be performed: 1. Select a frame node in the simulation tree as start node for the prototype 2. Create a prototype of this start node by right clicking and select Create Prototype… 3. Select the Prototypes tab on a component window. If a component window is not open, then select New Component Window from the Window menu 4. Click New… in the Components - Prototype window 5. Select a file name and click Save 6. Drag the prototype from the local prototype window to the Component – Prototype window to store the prototype in the prototype library file. Only one prototype must be stored in each prototype library file. TEXTURES EON Dynamic Load also allows for switching textures. The use of textures is similar to prototypes, except the textures are created in other software such as e.g. Photoshop. WEB SERVER All prototype library files must be stored on a web server provided by the companies that are using the EON Server services. Any kind of web server can be used for this purpose. EON Server services uses the http protocol (TCP port 80) for downloading prototype library files in order to avoid firewall problems. The prototype library files and texture files must then reside in a base directory or any subdirectory below this base directory on a web server. The base directory is defined in the EON License Server. EON APPLICATION The EON Application will use the DynamicPrototype node for loading dynamic prototype files. This node has a PrototypeName field that holds the name of the prototype library file. This name may be set from inside EON Studio, which means that the prototype library file will be loaded upon start of the EON Application, or left empty and filled with a valid prototype library filename when the EON Application is running. When the EON Application is running it is always possible to change the PrototypeName field that means a new prototype library file will be downloaded and inserted to the running EON Application. There are also a number of different ways to control the download order (using script) and track current download status. In most cases a combination of logic between nodes, script nodes and JavaScript on a web page is combined to handle the logic for which prototype library files to download. EMBEDDING THE EON APPLICATION In order to use Dynamic Load services the EonX ActiveX control must be embedded in host software. Typical EON Applications that use the EON Server services places the EonX control on a web page. Both Internet explorer (4.0 or higher) and Netscape Navigator (4.04 or higher) are supported on the MS Windows platform. EON Applications are embedded the same way either they use EON Dynamic Load or not, there’s just one extra parameter passed to the EonX control, the base directory on the web server where the prototype library files are placed. The new enhanced EON Web Publisher released with EON Studio 3.0 creates all necessary code for publishing, only the base directory is necessary to set. Most web based EON Applications utilizing the EON Server services also need some control logic on the web page. The recommended way is to use JavaScript on the web page combined with in and out events from the EON Application. This way a response from the web server (generating web page(s)) can include references to prototype library files, which might be selected by the end user and downloaded/included in the EON Application. EON TRACK EON Track is a service that stores user-defined text in a database. The basic service includes possibility to store this text in a SQL database hosted by EON Reality. In EON Studio there is a node to handle this, Tracker. This node has five text fields that can be set with any kind of text and sent to the database using the SendInfoFields event. It is also possible to customize the behavior of the Tracker node in order to connect to any kind of database that can be reached through Internet. EON Reality offers this customization on consultant basis. The main purpose of this node is to track specific information about what the end user does while using the EON Application. This is similar to “banner clicking” where some company have to pay a small amount of money every time someone clicks on an advertising banner on a web page. However, the EON Track service also offers possibility to store any kind of selections or other events that the end user generates. A possible use for the five text fields in the Tracker node could be: 1. Name of the EON Application. If a user has more than one EON Application on the web, this will identify which of them that was used for this track record. Example: Car and Motorcycle for a Car or Motorcycle EON Application. 2. Now we assume we are using the motorcycle EON Application. Then the next text field could hold the brand of the Motorcycle selected. Example: Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Harley Davidson, Triumph etc. 3. Lets say we picked a Suzuki motorcycle, in this case we want to know which model # was picked which e.g. could be any of GS750ES, GSX1100EF, GS1100G, GSX1100G etc.. 4. After selecting the favorite model (GS1100G) we’re about to select a part of this, let’s say we select the gas tank, which would be the fourth text field. 5. Finally we select a color of the gas tank, could be red and black. The example above shows one way to fill the fields on the database. The customer (who designs the EON Application) can then log into the database over the web and see statistics for selection the end users has made. It’s possible to see favorite colors etc. It is also possible to build a solution where counts on specific brands are made for further business. EON LICENSE SERVER The different EON Server on-line solutions are all using EON License Server, which is a client-server based solution for licensing the technologies. The EON License Server keeps track of number of sessions that is used by the license. It is possible to set a maximum number of sessions per month, or just a maximum number of sessions per license. The system also provides for possibility to order new amount of number of sessions. Each session is a start of an EON Application, usually when the end user goes to a web page containing an EON Application. The business model is based on a maximum number of sessions per month for a specific fee. The EON License server has two kinds of users available for customers, Provider User and Provider Administrator. The Provider User can only look at available sessions and other information, while the Provider Administrator can add/delete Provider Users and also order more sessions. For off-line use a traditional EON Flex-LM node locked license is needed. cheap software oem software

For the last month or so, I've been running Openbox on my Ubuntu Feisty home system. I like the simplicity and speed of it. It takes a little more manual work to customize it, but then again you end up with a system that works the way you want it. It's like taking a standard desktop environment like Gnome and removing (or hiding) all the bits that are not important to what it is you do every day. Eliminate the fluff, so to speak. I run a very sharp and slick looking Murrina-type theme on it. I don't bounce around between a lot of different themes, but I have to say that the Murrina style themes are definitely my favourite. Anyway, at work I'm stuck on XP-Pro. I do have Virtualbox installed to run a virtual environment that is pretty much the same as my Linux box at home (Openbox on Fiesty etc.). And for probably a year now, I've ran a Gnome theme in XP on my work box to at least make it a little more homey ;). Today however, I came across WinGNOME-XP on deviantART which is a project that aims to provide various resources to allow users to experience a consistent Gnome-type desktop environment on Windows XP. I'll sign up for that! Of course the project is just getting organized, so there are only a couple of things available so far. One neat utility is the Tango Patcher which will replace or revise your system resources to provide icon themes based on various Linux projects (basic Tango, Tangerine, Suse Industrial Theme, Gnome 2.0 theme..). I ran it on my system and it seemed to work fine - although like any utilities of this type, it's caveat emptor. I also downloaded and installed the MurrinaFancyClearlooks theme which finally got my windows controls looking somewhat like my home box. It ain't perfect, but at least I can now be somewhat happy with the look and feel of the XP box I have to spend all day with. Here's what it looks like now: Blogged with Flock cheap software oem software
