CM Labs Vortex Studio 2024.8

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.
