Right Hemisphere's New Deep Exploration Software Ships, Features Support for 3D Manufacturing Instructions

Right Hemisphere® announced the pricing and immediate availability of its new Deep Exploration™ 5.5 client software. The company also announced the immediate availability of Right Hemisphere Deep View 5.5. Deep View 5.5 is a free, standalone 2D and 3D graphics viewing application that can also embed product data directly into industry standard document formats such as Microsoft® PowerPoint®, Word, and Excel®, or one click publish to Adobe® PDF®. Introduced in April, Deep Exploration 5.5 features advanced support for the creation and output of real-time 3D manufacturing instructions. The software also offers several new licensing options, user interface enhancements for improved ease of use and workflows, and new technical illustration capabilities. Content generated by Deep Exploration 5.5 will require an upgrade to Deep View 5.5 to take advantage of the new output features.

Deep Exploration 5.5 can be purchased starting today from the Right Hemisphere Web site or through authorized resellers. The software is available in two versions: Deep Exploration CAD Edition -- which includes translators to import computer-aided design (CAD) data -- and Deep Exploration Standard Edition, which does not. However, Deep Exploration Standard Edition now supports advanced editing and output functionality previously only available in the CAD Edition. Manufacturers who have implemented Right Hemisphere's Deep Server™ enterprise software -- which includes CAD format translation capabilities -- can opt to purchase the lower cost Standard Edition to fully address their downstream document production needs.

Additionally, with the Deep Exploration 5.5 release, Right Hemisphere now offers multiple subscription licensing options. Customers can choose between a one-year and a three-year subscription for a floating network license, a fixed network license, or a fixed standalone license. See the table below for license pricing.
