The Digital Prototyping Solution & Autodesk

std-adminAll Topics

Digital Prototyping brings together design data from all phases of the product development process into a single digital model in Inventor. This model can then be manipulated in many ways to test certain aspects of the model that would normally be handled with a physical prototype. Things such as stress analysis can be handled in Inventor. Or, you can bring your prototype into a Revit model to see how it will fit into a factory setting.

Teaching Data Logging as a Process

std-adminAll Topics

Data Logging is happening in each of the above examples. Traffic intersections log the number of vehicles travelling in each direction as well as the numbers of vehicles at each light interval. Manufacturing systems log every aspect of the manufacturing process. Shippers monitor the temperature and other environmental conditions of their cargo and the humidity is often considered in long term storage solutions.
