Vortex® Studio serves as a platform for developing and launching real-time, interactive simulations of mechanical systems. It constitutes a vital element in all of CM Labs’ top-tier equipment simulation training packs and can be used for designing and producing personalized real-time, interactive simulation products.
Vortex Studio comprises two packages :
- Vortex Create : visually build real-time mechanical machines and scenarios.
- Vortex Activate : deploy content created in systems ranging from desktop to many-screen custom simulators.
Vortex Create Key Features
- Visual Editor allows to build visually high-fidelity real-time mechanical systems.
- High-fidelity physics engine with a number of extension modules including :
- Rigid Body
- Vehicle, Tire, and Track Models
- Cables
- Earth-Moving
- Allows users to simply extend the core functionalities using Python 3 scripting.
- Verification test suite in Python providing tools for quality assurance and maintenance of simulations.
- Automate Content Creation using Python scripting.
- Supports export to Unity and Epic Unreal platforms.
- Out-of-the-box integration with Simulink for control system design.
- Supports integration with ROS2 for building robotics applications.
- Modular architecture, with mechanical configuration and attachments, allows users to scale their productivity by efficiently building and testing variations of their models.
- Vortex Studio Debugger offers an interface where mechanical engineers can remotely connect to a simulation and debug the dynamics simulation of Vortex Studio.
Vortex Activate Key Features
- Vortex Studio Director is a desktop-based application that provides an interface for creating, configuring, launching, and monitoring distributed simulations.
- Vortex Studio Launcher offers a common interface to any simulation content installed on the same computer or simulator to start a simulation using a specific simulation exercise.
- Hardware integration of CANopen device, OPC UA/DA and motion platform (D-Box),
- Distributed simulation on multiple processes and multiple computers, as well as multiple displays.
- Additional tools come ready to use for packaging and deployment.
