This VR platform is now accessible on mobile devices
The Comos Walkinside virtual-reality (VR) platform (photo) for operating, training and simulation has recently been integrated with the PureWeb Platform. The PureWeb Platform provides comprehensive tools for remotely accessing, delivering and interacting with 2-D and 3-D models in real time. This enables Comos Walkinside viewers to realistically depict highly complex plant models in several dimensions using any web browser or mobile device. Integration of the platforms enables powerful rendering on a server and secure delivery of the images to a web browser or mobile device as part of an interactive stream, achieving a high level of image fidelity. This allows simultaneous collaboration from disparate geographic locations in real time, also creating new workflows for Comos Walkinside that were not possible before, says the company.
