September 20196 In recent times, the process of designing and building ships has gone through a paradigm shift owing to technological advancement. In the last two decades, improvements in designing powered by computers have helped engineers not only design ships but also test and produce three-dimensional models on the ship. This makes it possible to build the vessel virtually before it hits the shop floor. To support this computer-aided design (CAD) software, the inundation of augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) has made it possible to set new standards in design. Shipwright firms today, among other parties involved in the process, have harnessed the power of technology to indulge in an engaging virtual pre-construction walkthrough of a ship's design. In addition, VR also helps the user to take down the ship in parts and layers to understand its working and materials better, while also making the necessary amendments at a design level. While technology has spurred an influx of solution providers in the marine space, with leaders coming from different backgrounds such as engineering and construction, among others, the level of competition is hard to fathom. Some of the ship designing solution providers are offering clients the ability to walk into a life-like ship design virtually. With an interactive experience, the outcome of the model is not only efficient but also highly creative by harnessing the latest technology trends. Ground-breaking solution providers are providing user-friendly software that powers the process of designing a modern ship. The primary focus of the software is to visualize new designs and modifications made on existing models. In parallel, the solution also allows an entire design team into a simulated field. While designing can be crucial, many users look for designs that were created using third-party three-dimensional tools. Without a second thought, the AR/VR presence in marine technology barely scrapes the surface of the iceberg. In this edition of APAC CIO Outlook, we are presenting to you the companies that are at the forefront of revolutionizing the marine technology space.Let us know your thoughts!Annie Johnson To subscribe to APACCIOOutlookVisit www.apacciooutlook.comArt & GraphicsAmelia StewartFlynn SmythToby LangtonScott JuasyManaging EditorAnnie JohnsonEditorialCreating Life-Size Vessels VirtuallySenior WritersLane Adams Clara MathewRoyce D'SouzaEditorialAlfred MardinLouis BeckerRachael ClarkRoy ChowDai ShihJune WilliamsCopyright © 2019 ValleyMedia Inc.
