Open Spatial Cloud combines QGIS desktop editing with web and mobile GIS clients connected to a managed spatial database. The practical question for adopters is how shared editing and audit controls work across those clients.
Chaos has acquired Vyssuals, whose dashboards connect to Revit and IFC models for live data views and model checks. The deal extends Chaos’s design-workflow ambitions, but an Enscape integration timetable has not been announced.
ZWSOFT has appointed Logicom Saudi Arabia as a distributor, expanding its local channel for ZWCAD. The announcement concerns distribution and access, not a change to the software’s capabilities.
Hi3D has released v1.0 inference code and model weights for local 3D geometry refinement. The workflow requires a coarse mesh and reference image, and its hardware, output and licensing limits matter for production adoption.
CRAFTGRAFT has introduced GearMaker for creating and arranging spur gears and FlipPrep for preparing stock, registration holes and holding tabs in MoI. FlipPrep exports geometry for CAM, but does not create toolpaths or verify the complete machining setup.
The first print3d release gives AI coding agents a workflow for generating Blender geometry, checking it and slicing a Bambu Studio project. The user reviews and starts the print.
OrcaSlicer 2.5.0 Alpha brings parametric design, Python extensions and filament color mixing into the slicer. The project has since advanced to a release candidate, so the alpha is a preview rather than the current milestone.
ACIMUS has raised about ¥65 million and formed a capital and business alliance with JR East Startup. The collaboration centers on creating simplified BIM models from existing station drawings for maintenance use.
AM PravaH 3.0 extends the software from melt-pool and microstructure analysis to part-scale thermo-mechanical simulation. It also adds WAAM workflows and GUI-based LPBF scan-pattern generation.
d&b audiotechnik has added MVR Exchange to the ArrayCalc beta, enabling import, export and updates of venue and loudspeaker data. The feature is intended to connect audio planning with compatible CAD, lighting and visualization applications.
