Summer has finally started kicking in, here in Switzerland, which is wonderful. I saw this field of poppies, yesterday, which was simply stunning: the majority of the field was purple with a small border of red ones near the edges (although this doesn't really come across in the photo). I hadn't seen these poppies before, […]

In a recent post we talked about the integration of Hyperion's planar heatmap capability into Dasher. Towards the end of that post, I mentioned that the Hyperion team was looking into exposing some way to place planar heatmaps not only at the minimum and maximum vertical locations in the bounding box, but at levels in-between. […]

Over the next few posts – in this series, anyway – we're going to take a look at the shading of objects (actually meshes) using the Forge viewer's Data Visualization Extension (Project Hyperion). This is something we've done in Dasher for some time, and I was excited that using Hyperion would once again allow us […]

The material for this year's online Autodesk DevDays is now live on YouTube. These sessions were held back in March, but now that the various products discussed have been released publicly, the information has been made available for everyone (i.e. not only covered by the Non-Disclosure Agreement signed by Autodesk Developer Network members, the famously […]

The big news of the last week or so – although I'm well behind the curve, given prior announcements by the AU and Forge teams – is that the dates for Autodesk University 2021 have been fixed, and announced along with the event's pricing. As anticipated from the somewhat early CFP process, this year's AU […]

Having spent time recently looking at integrating sprites and volumetric room heatmaps into Dasher, today we move on to a capability that we didn't have previously but has been enabled by Project Hyperion (i.e. the new Data Visualization Extension for the Forge viewer): planar heatmaps. Planar heatmaps do just what you'd expect: they display a heatmap […]

I was thinking back on last week's post regarding the work needed to integrate Hyperion's volumetric heatmaps into Dasher, and realised that – despite the relative length of the post – I'd really glossed over the process for integrating heatmaps and using them to display sensor data. So I've retroactively gone back and marked that […]

It's a holiday in most of Central Europe (including Switzerland), but I thought I'd quickly highlight a couple of interesting opportunities at Autodesk. I posted about one of these, a few weeks ago, but there's another position that has come up, since then. The Forge viewer team is looking not just for a Senior Product […]

Today's post is a follow-on from the first part where we looked at integrating Hyperion sprites into Dasher. (The posts are independent, though, so you don't have to read the first one if you're only interested in integrating heatmaps.) I was supposed to publish this at the beginning of the week, but I ended up […]

The big news from this week (for me, anyway, aside from a very enjoyable Star Wars Day, yesterday) is that Project Hyperion has been released officially to the public as the Forge Viewer's Data Visualization Extension. All you need to do is to use it is to start making use of the Forge Viewer from […]
