EON Reality Introduces EON Ibench Mobile™ and Partnership with Infinite Z to Provide Intuitive and Immersive Realistic Interaction with zSpace
EON Reality has introduced EON Ibench Mobile™, a table-top stereoscopic 3D display solution. EON Reality also announced its partnership with InfiniteZ, Inc.®, a technology provider that enables natural interaction with virtual-holographic 3D imagery. EON Reality and Infinite Z are collaborating to provide innovative 3D solutions to the market by combining Infinite Z's unique platform with EON's software solutions.
The EON Ibench Mobile™ system utilizes Infinite Z’s virtual-holographic 3D visualization technology, zSpace®, and is set to enable commercial and educational professionals to accelerate design and development processes and improve the way people learn, teach and communicate in today’s world.
EON Ibench Mobile™ uses an integrated software/hardware solution available only through EON Reality. The system allows for intuitive, real-time interaction using Infinite Z’s zSpace with a bright 24” HD stereoscopic display system that is responsive to the user’s actions and allows interaction with realistic 3D objects or a full virtual environment. The system includes high-end 3D software that enables easy conversion of 3D data, scenario creation, advanced interactivity creation, and supports numerous CAD and 3D model formats as well as content from the EON Experience portal.
By using zSpace as part of the EON Ibench Mobile offering, users will be able to work with designs as if they are real physical objects before they are even produced. The holographic representation provides an extra layer of detail that can’t be achieved through traditional 2D, and using the zSpace stylus allows for the pinpointed control to turn, take apart and manipulate the design with extreme precision.
“zSpace aims to change the way people interact with computers – offering an entirely new way of working with 3D imagery in a highly realistic virtual environment,” said Paul Kellenberger, CEO of Infinite Z. “EON Reality offers an advanced set of 3D visualization solutions, and through our partnership we hope to enhance the 3D experience with added capabilities of zSpace, while encouraging further innovation and creativity in the design process.”
“We are extremely pleased with the results from our collaboration with Infinite Z,” said Mats W. Johansson, President, EON Reality, Inc. “Together, we have combined the very best of software and hardware to be able to offer this intuitive, interactive, and immersive 3D solution.”
