Last week I mentioned some feedback I'd received from our HCI & Visualization team regarding the possibility of animating the heatmaps in the Types By Level UI. (Prior to this the Types By Level feature has really just been a legend for quick access to per-level heatmaps: I stopped short of attempting to animate the […]

Last week I had a valuable discussion with members of our talented HCI and Visualization research team. They had reached out with the offer to perform "live science" review session for other teams' research projects – with a particular focus on Human Computer Interaction and Visualization, of course – and I jumped at the opportunity. […]

This week Autodesk offices around the world are closed for an extended holiday break. I'm grateful for this additional time off at the end of a crazy year, as I'm sure all my Autodesk colleagues are. My children are still in school until Wednesday lunchtime, so I've taken the chance to hit the slopes for […]

Last week was a big week for the team developing the Data Visualization Extension (codenamed Hyperion) for the Forge viewer. And for the Dasher team, of course, who were very excited to see what our development partners can do with the new Dasher-like capabilities being built into Forge. As it's still early days for the […]

My friend and incredibly inspiring former colleague, Mickey McManus, has been co-hosting a regular (I want to say weekly) live-streamed event under the name of Quarantime. They've just posted the 51st episode (which means they must be doing this more than once per week) which featured another friend and current colleague, Alec Shuldiner. Alec has […]

During the last week the kids have been opening their Advent calendars, we had a visit from St. Nicholas (I've talked before about this central European tradition), and the Candy Cane accelerator has kicked off. All-in-all things are starting to feel very festive! (And yes, Dasher is one of Santa's reindeer, so there's that, too.) […]

Tomorrow (or today for some of you) marks the start of a 3-day event – the Built Environment Summit – being run by BSI in the UK. Here's the agenda for Day 1 (December 1st 2020, all times UTC/GMT): 09:00 - 09:10 Chairman's Opening Remarks 09:10 - 10:30 DFMA and IoT: What are the possibilities? […]

Much in the same way as I felt a little tired last Monday – something I suggested on Twitter might be Pavlovian, as it wasn't due to jetlag or travel-based fatigue – today has been another low energy day. (Typically the week after AU – and sometimes even longer – is a non-event for me, […]

People registered for AU you can use the above link to access the recording for the next 30 days. Just click on the Join Now button: I really wasn't sure what to expect from […]

Yesterday was a great day for people interested in Digital Twins (among lots of other topics, of course). During the AU 2020 General Session and the AEC Keynote we heard about Autodesk Tandem, a new product and platform for creating Digital Twins from BIM. During the Forge Keynote, we heard about the Forge viewer's new […]
