GiveMePower Launches CAD Anywhere Embedded Partner Programs
GiveMePower Corporation announced the launch of three new PowerCAD® EmbeddedT partnering programs allowing "fast-track" development and delivery of CAD-enabled hardware and software solutions. Primary customers include mobile/wireless computer device manufacturers, software solution developers and corporate/government enterprises who require 2 and 3-dimensional computer-aided design (CAD) technologies which can be quickly embedded into custom solutions for architecture, engineering, construction, manufacturing, mapping, real estate and related industries.
PowerCAD Embedded technologies are the first of their kind to offer user-scalable development of full-featured 2 and 3-dimensional "CAD Anywhere" viewing, design and collaboration solutions which operate across all Microsoft Windows® computing platforms and offer complete compatibility with existing CAD systems such as AutoCAD® by Autodesk, Inc. Supported hardware includes Windows® desktop and laptop PCs, and the latest generation of Windows® mobile and wireless Pocket PCs, handheld PCs, tablet PCs, SmartPhones and industry-specific devices from leading vendors such as Acer, Dell, HP, Motion, Rockwell Automation, Siemens, TDS and Toshiba.
"Using PowerCAD Embedded technologies, our customers can now get the most powerful and productive solutions in our industry for thousands of dollars less than any other alternative," said Chris Maeder, president of BOSS International, a leading engineering design software developer in Madison, Wisconsin. "We've already scheduled two new applications for shipping in December which should help increase sales by thousands of licenses per year."
Ten other third-party software developers have joined BOSS International in completing PowerCAD Embedded solutions for near-term delivery. GiveMePower also has technology alliances with Intel, Leica Geosystems, Microsoft, Rockwell Automation and TDS, whereby GiveMePower technologies serve as value-added solutions for enterprise clients.
"The challenge for mobile computing has been the availability of software technologies that provide real and measurable increases in business productivity," comments Bill Walton, president and CEO of GiveMePower. "PowerCAD Embedded provides a complete framework for hardware manufacturers and software developers to quickly and easily deliver collaborative mobile, desktop and wireless CAD solutions which plug into existing technology infrastructures and deliver a very fast return on investment."
PowerCAD Embedded is part of GiveMePower's complete family of CAD AnywhereT 2D and 3D design, viewing and mobile/wireless collaboration solutions.
