VridgeR for 3D Image Data Processing

Kanagawa, Japan based Digital Process Ltd has developed VridgeR, which the company describes as 'bridge between Virtual and Real stages'. VridgeR is a software package that uses a special rendering technique that does not use polygons, and can display highly complex models using standard hardware.

Conventional CAD or 3D software processes the image data into polygons to be displayed. When developing massive objects such as cars or planes which can contain millions of polygons, conventional display systems cannot render these models quickly with a high level of accuracy. Instead of using polygons for curved surfaces, VridgeR uses a hybrid mesh, which can create precise, curved surfaces.

Using special compression techniques, 20GB of aircraft CAD data can be loaded onto less than 1GB RAM with complete mathematical precision. Display accuracy is controlled dynamically and special functions such as measurement can perform with high accuracy. VridgeR has the potential of accelerating digital process for wide area of engineering from development stage to sales preparation of wide range of products.
