CoCreate and EON Reality Enter Into Partnership
CoCreate Software, Inc . announced that it has entered into a partnership with EON Reality, Inc. Through this agreement, EON Reality will launch the EON Collaborate solution using CoCreate's OneSpace.net collaboration software.
The EON Collaborate solution bundles OneSpace.net and EON Studio software. EON Studio is an authoring tool for developing interactive 3D applications that can be viewed with a small software plug-in. The rich 3D product interactivity from EON Studio combined with the collaboration capabilities of OneSpace.net provide a powerful way of communicating design intent and product ideas across dispersed design teams.
Both EON and CoCreate serve similar manufacturing industries and share a common goal: Reduce complexity of communicating design issues in these markets. With the release of EON Collaborate, customers in electronics, manufacturing, automotive and defense industries can use both strong visualization and collaboration tools for working across inter-company sites, suppliers, and customers.
EON plans to launch the product immediately and will distribute it world wide.
"The combination of EON Reality's products and OneSpace.net will enable manufacturing companies to realize higher degree of realism and interactivity in their collaboration efforts. We see an increased growth in demand in Integrated Product Content Management (IPCM) and collaboration is an important component of this," said Mats Johansson, EON Reality CEO.
"More and more manufacturing companies today understand the connection between collaborative product development and successful products," said William M. Gascoigne, CoCreate CEO. "The EON Collaborate software package offers companies the right set of capabilities to overcome the challenges of designing products across a distributed team of experts, customers and supply chains."
EON's products have a high level of interactivity, simulation realism, rendering quality and integrated data exchange capability optimized for high performance on today's standard PCs and Internet. Several large corporations such as Office Depot, Suzuki, Dell, Lexmark, Canon, Hon, Samsung, Shimano, Audi, Nokia and Bank of America are using EON's software solutions.
