挑战
该案例研究围绕工程师在测试和原型设计复杂机电系统时面临的挑战。依赖物理原型的传统方法不仅成本高昂,而且耗时。此外,在设计过程中往往来得太晚。当设备用于国防、海上或太空等高风险和高成本的操作时,情况会更加复杂。在这种情况下,工程师需要测试可行性、可访问性,并仔细规划操作。另一个挑战是复杂机器操作价值的沟通和演示,特别是对于非公路和工业设备,在这些设备和工地进行演示或培训是不切实际的。
关于客户
Vortex Studio 的客户主要是参与复杂机电系统设计、测试和原型制作的工程师。这些系统可能用于高风险和高成本的操作,例如国防、海上或太空。客户还包括那些需要沟通和展示复杂机器操作价值的客户,特别是在无法访问设备和工作场所进行演示或培训的情况下。该软件也有利于客户和操作员,他们可以成为工程流程的核心,在驾驶/操作时验证最佳的人体工程学、控制、ADAS 和 HMI 配置。
解决方案
Vortex Studio 为这些挑战提供了解决方案,使工程师能够在虚拟工作现场创建机器的实时交互式系统级模拟。该软件允许工程师设计和部署具有实时交互控制、令人惊叹的沉浸式视觉、运动、音频等功能的驾驶员在环模拟器。这有利于人机交互测试以及客户和操作员的参与,而无需昂贵的物理原型。此外,Vortex Studio 允许工程师在超现实的虚拟沙箱中测试他们的机器,评估操作环境中的移动性、可访问性和可操作性。该软件还使工程师能够在虚拟工作现场构建和测试设备和机器人操作,提前模拟远程、危险或成本高昂的操作。

Smart Water Filtration Systems
Before working with Ayla Networks, Ozner was already using cloud connectivity to identify and solve water-filtration system malfunctions as well as to monitor filter cartridges for replacements.But, in June 2015, Ozner executives talked with Ayla about how the company might further improve its water systems with IoT technology. They liked what they heard from Ayla, but the executives needed to be sure that Ayla’s Agile IoT Platform provided the security and reliability Ozner required.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
