It's that time of year, where our engineering teams release the primary annual updates to our products. AutoCAD 2022 was released a couple of weeks ago, and Revit 2022 dropped yesterday. I unfortunately spend very little time in our products, these days, so I'll leave others to extoll their various benefits. Aside from working with […]

Last week Autodesk's Developer Advocacy and Support team organised their second Forge Accelerator where developers could prototype Digital Twins using the Forge viewer's Data Visualization Extension (codenamed Hyperion). The first of these Accelerators was back in December: while these virtual Accelerator events are currently held monthly, the Hyperion team needed some time to integrate the […]

I've just heard that the Call for Proposals for Autodesk University 2021 goes out next week on March 30th. The CFP period is short – it runs until April 30th – so it's already time to don your thinking caps and consider what topic or topics you'd like to talk about at this year's AU. […]

A few weeks ago I came across an internal link to a new Chrome extension that greatly simplifies the act of working with the Forge viewer (which we refer to inside Autodesk as LMV, or the Large Model Viewer).

Just before the holiday break I had an interesting chat with Elias Cohenca (someone I've mentored on and off over the last few years). He was about to participate in his 6th annual hackathon in the Tel Aviv office, and wanted to bounce a few ideas off me regarding technologies. Our Tel Aviv office has […]

Forge Accelerators have always been BYOD. First they were "Bring Your Own Device", then (on going virtual) they were also "Bring Your Own Drinks" and now for the upcoming event – on December 7-11 2020 – we're giving people the opportunity to "Build Your Own Dasher". BYOD3! Attendees at the Candy Cane accelerator (love those […]

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, […]
