PNY Technologies and Right Hemisphere Offer Free Trial Software for Publishing and Visualizing 3D with NVIDIA Quadro Graphics Solutions
PNY Technologies, Inc. and Right Hemisphere announced that all current generation NVIDIA Quadro® professional graphics solutions purchased through PNY will come equipped with free trial versions of Right Hemisphere's Deep ExplorationT, Deep PublishT, and various CAD repurposing software. Available immediately, this promotion applies to the just-announced NVIDIA Quadro solutions based on the new high-bandwidth PCI ExpressT bus architecture as well as AGP-based models. In a separate promotion, specially priced bundles of NVIDIA Quadro by PNY Technologies hardware and Right Hemisphere software will be available in August for purchase from Jeff Burgess & Associates (JB&A), a leading distributor to the CAD, animation, and white box channel.
Right Hemisphere's Deep Exploration, Deep Publish, and associated CAD repurposing software enables users with NVIDIA Quadro by PNY Technologies professional graphics solutions to capture design data straight from engineering and translate it into a wide range of 2D and 3D formats, including Right Hemisphere's transportable file format. With Right Hemisphere software and third-party tools, users can then add animation, textures, materials, and interactivity, and embed their graphical assets directly into Microsoft® PowerPoint®, Word, Excel, and other business applications with ease. Deep Exploration and Deep Publish software give non-engineering and business personnel- such as training, documentation, marketing, and support staff- the tools to work with 3D assets created by engineering but typically locked away from use by other departments.
"The performance, precision, and quality of NVIDIA Quadro solutions are as valuable in the business sector as they are for the engineering and content creation markets," said Jeff Brown, general manager of professional graphics at NVIDIA. "Right Hemisphere helps bridge the gap between the world of 3D engineering data and the business professional. By combining NVIDIA Quadro graphics and Right Hemisphere software in these promotions, PNY and Right Hemisphere are making the benefits of advanced visualization accessible to every person in the enterprise."
"This is about the creation of 3D content that looks great, holds attention, and can be used by everyone in the enterprise. Our Deep Exploration software has full support for shader and material technologies, meaning we can take full advantage of the NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY Technologies graphics hardware to generate photo-realistic assets for downstream departmental use," said Mark Thomas, president and chief technology officer at Right Hemisphere. "We don't leave any NVIDIA Quadro by PNY Technologies graphics functionality sitting idle when customers use our software with their hardware."
PNY Technologies' customers that purchase an NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY Technologies or an NVIDIA Quadro NVS by PNY Technologies professional graphics solution will receive free, trial versions of Deep Exploration and Deep Publish software together with Right Hemisphere CAD repurposing modules, including importers for CATIA®, Unigraphics®, Pro/ENGINEER, and SolidWorks applications. They will also receive coupons to buy select Right Hemisphere software at a discount, including solution bundles for Interactive Media & Training; Technical Documentation; and Marketing & Presentations.
