CONCORD, MA, Jul 21 (MARKET WIRE) -- SpaceClaim, provider of the world's fastest and most innovative 3D DirectModeling solutions, today announced the company will enable engineers andindustrial designers to leverage Windows Touch to create and edit precisesolid models. SpaceClaim marked the news by releasing a highlyentertaining and instructive video that demonstrates how multi-touch withSpaceClaim 3D Direct Modeling solutions will impact design andengineering.Recently, SpaceClaim announced that the company was chosen by Microsoft(R)as one of a few select Independent Software Vendors (ISV's) in support ofthe launch of Windows 7 and by N-trig to support DuoSense dual-modetechnology, which allows multi-touch in conjunction with a stylus."Engineering design represents one of the earliest and most compellinguses of multi-touch technology as it further enhances the ability toemploy 3D direct modeling for conceptual design, engineering simulationand analysis, and product styling," said Chris Randles, President and CEOof SpaceClaim. "Touch technology lets anyone create, edit, and visualize3D models with their fingers. SpaceClaim's software was designed to giveengineers and industrial designers the ultimate freedom and flexibilityto solve complex design challenges.
Our support of multi-touch is anotherexample of our leadership in providing the most innovative 3D DirectModeling solutions."Multi-touch -- enabling on-screen objects to be manipulated using multiplefingers -- is becoming mainstream through the launch of Windows 7 fromMicrosoft(R). While multi-touch is expected to become common on PChardware, SpaceClaim is ensuring that 3D design will be one of theearliest and most compelling uses of the technology. SpaceClaim willsupport any multi-touch hardware that uses Windows 7, including thosefrom 3M, N-trig, HP, Dell, and Lenovo.Windows Touch provides SpaceClaim customers with the most flexibility byaugmenting the mouse and keyboard as a new way to interact with solidmodels."Windows 7 reflects Microsoft's commitment to focusing on customers' toppriorities and emerging interests," said Mark Rogers, director of WindowsSoftware Ecosystem Product Management at Microsoft Corp. "Therefore, beingable to take advantage of Windows Touch technology and the benefits ofWindows 7 will help many customers work the way they want and make newthings possible. These directmodelers enable engineers to work in 3D and engage in conceptual design,engineering analysis, and simulation-driven design.Earlier this year SpaceClaim announced the fourth release of the company'ssolutions and, marking an aggressive development cycle, recently announcedadditional new enhancements through Service Packs. Multi-touch technologywill be enabled in the next major release of SpaceClaim, which is duelater this year.SpaceClaim Engineer is a fast, simple, and powerful 3Ddirect modeler for top-down design, 3D layout, conceptual engineering,and model preparation for simulation and analysis SpaceClaim Engineerpricing starts at $1,995 per seat.
