Alain de Rouvray, ESI Group’s Chairman and CEO states: “This new expertise of assistance to human perception, coupled with the excellent IFSTTAR partnership, provides opportunity to take into account the interactions of a vehicle, or any other industrial product, with its scalable immersive environment. Once integrated into digital 3D modeling, it will enable dramatically accelerated design and prototyping of embedded control and security systems and thereby strengthen the value of our global solutions in virtual prototyping. For ESI Group’s industrial partners, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) present a major technological challenge as efficiency must be built upon the quality of interaction between digital modeling and human perception. The growing requirements in terms of active safety make it important and urgent to integrate ADAS systems in virtual prototyping, complementing the existing constraints of passive safety during product development. Clearly strategic for ESI Group, this operation amplifies our technological and commercial synergies

CADENAS presents the newest version 3.3 of its 3D CAD download portal PARTcommunity. New features, like a faster search for 3D CAD models or the option to place several components in the shopping cart at the same time, significantly increasing the operating ease for the user. Besides an improvement of search engines, data security is also further increased: passwords of new PARTcommunity users now have to comply with higher minimum requirements. Get your desired CAD model even easier One of the essential improvements of the PARTcommunity Version 3.3 are the revised search features. In the first step of the search, only the 20 most relevant search results are displayed. This improves the required time for a 3D CAD model search decisively, so that the results are listed within one to two seconds. If further search results are desired, they can be displayed afterwards by clicking the button “Show more results“. Also registering for the 3D CAD

The supervisory board of Nemetschek AG approved the dividend proposed by the executive board. The considerable dividend increase to EUR 1.60 per share is in keeping with the very positive business development in 2014. Executive and supervisory boards will submit the dividend proposal to the annual general meeting for resolution on May 20, 2015. Thus, compared to the previous year (EUR 1.30 per share), the dividend will increase by approximately 23%. With 9,625 million shares entitled to a dividend, the total amount of dividends to be distributed should increase to EUR 15.4 million (previous year: EUR 12.5 million). The dividend payout ratio for the 2014 fiscal year is therefore approximately 35% – in relation to the operative cash flow amounting to EUR 44.2 million. Furthermore, the executive and supervisory boards will propose a stock split at a ratio of 1:4 to the annual general meeting. Every shareholder is to receive three

New C3D Customers C3D Labs is responsible for the development of the C3D geometric modeling kernel, and so it is pleased that in 2014 five more companies chose to implement C3D. This means that 15 CAD development firms now use the Russian-developed kernel in their 3D software. C3D Labs' new customers are international and local. From South Korea, Solar Tech develops Quick CADCAM. From Ukraine, Dynamics & Structures Lab. and their Belinda Structure for engineering analysis. And from Russia, NIP-Informatica develops TECHTRAN. Companies that already license the C3D kernel are now launching their C3D-based products on the market.

Delcam will launch the 2015 R2 version of its PowerSHAPE Pro software for the design of products and tooling on Booth #933 at the Rapid conference and exhibition to be held from 18th to 21st May in Long Beach, California.  The new release includes a number of new options for reverse engineering as well as improvements to speed up and simplify the editing of product designs to make them more suitable for manufacture. By offering a combination of solid, surface and direct modelling, together with reverse engineering, PowerSHAPE Pro provides the most comprehensive range of design techniques available in a single CAD program.  Having all the different technologies in the same package reduces the need to transfer data between multiple programs and so streamlines any product-development process that requires both reverse-engineering and CAD functionality.  PowerSHAPE Pro can connect directly to most scanning hardware to capture and display scan data in real time.  The 2015 R2
