DualData - 3D Web Visualization System

Overview

DualData is our comprehensive solution for 3D web visualization, designed to transform how organizations present and interact with spatial information. The system consists of two main modules that work seamlessly together: a powerful Viewer and an advanced Editor.

Built on modern web technologies, DualData enables you to contextualize complex information within easily explorable 3D spatial environments. Whether you need to display technical specifications of machinery, create training procedures, or showcase real estate properties, DualData makes spatial information accessible and intuitive.

Core Modules

The Viewer

The DualData Viewer is a powerful visualization tool for contextualizing information on 3D models. It transforms traditionally difficult-to-manage data into spatially contextualized, easily accessible information within an intuitive 3D environment.

The viewer operates in two main modes, each designed for specific use cases:

Information Visualization Mode

This mode is designed for displaying characteristics of objects or environments, making it easy to visualize components and access technical specifications.

Key capabilities:

  • Object Characteristics: Display detailed properties and characteristics of any object or environment element
  • Component Visualization: Easily identify and explore individual components within complex assemblies
  • Technical Specifications: Access technical datasheets and specifications directly from the 3D model
  • Spatial Context: Understand relationships between components in their physical context

Perfect for:

  • Technical documentation of complex machinery
  • Equipment specifications and component libraries
  • Product catalogs with spatial context
  • Facility management and asset information

Training Steps Mode

A true interactive instruction manual for training on safety procedures and operational workflows. This mode guides users through step-by-step procedures directly within the 3D environment.

Key capabilities:

  • Step-by-Step Instructions: Sequential guidance through complex procedures
  • Visual Annotations: Highlighted components and visual cues for each step
  • Safety Procedures: Training modules for safety protocols and emergency procedures
  • Operational Training: Learn equipment operation and maintenance procedures
  • Progress Tracking: Monitor training completion and competency

Perfect for:

  • Safety training and certification
  • Equipment operation training
  • Maintenance procedure documentation
  • Emergency response protocols
  • Onboarding new personnel

The Editor

The DualData Editor is an advanced 3D editing environment for creating and managing all the viewer's data and content. It provides the tools necessary to build rich, interactive 3D experiences without requiring programming knowledge.

Key features:

  • 3D Content Management: Import and organize 3D models and environments
  • Data Association: Link information, specifications, and documents to 3D elements
  • Training Creation: Design step-by-step training procedures with visual annotations
  • Annotation Tools: Add notes, labels, and information hotspots throughout the 3D space
  • Media Integration: Embed images, videos, documents, and external links
  • Visual Editor: Intuitive interface for non-technical users

Deployment Flexibility:

The editor is designed with flexibility in mind, adapting to each client's specific needs:

  • Web-Based Version: Access the editor directly from the browser, enabling remote collaboration and instant access from any device
  • Desktop Application: Windows and Mac native applications for enhanced performance and offline work capabilities
  • Custom Deployment: Tailored to your infrastructure requirements and security policies
