How Can We Help?
Release notes
August 2024 (Version 1.2) update notes
This update further enhances Inspector’s functionality and user experience, featuring the following new capabilities and optimizations:
New features
- View equipment in 3D and MR modes
-
- 3D Mode: Users can remotely check the real-time operating status of key equipment by clicking on the digital twin in the equipment list, reducing the frequency of site inspections and improving efficiency, while enabling data insights for remote operations management from the control room.
- MR Mode: On-site, users can leverage augmented reality to display real-time equipment data, offering valuable operational insights. This mode enables engineers to make quick maintenance decisions, particularly in complex equipment management situations. It effectively resolves the “Equipment-data separation” problem seen in traditional methods, where data is viewed in the control room while equipment inspections happen on-site.
- Visualize equipment business logic relationships
-
- Users can intuitively view upstream and downstream connections between equipment in both 3D and MR modes, and understand the spatial impact of faults. When a piece of equipment fails, engineers can quickly locate and troubleshoot issues on-site using the augmented model and business logic, reducing downtime.
Optimizations
- Improved architectural scene display efficiency: We’ve optimized the display efficiency for architectural scenes, resulting in improved texture rendering.
- Model loading progress indicator: A new feature now shows real-time model loading progress, allowing users to track the status and reduce uncertainty during lengthy loading times.
- Additional user experience enhancements: We’ve made several refinements to further enhance the overall user experience in Inspector.
November 2024 (Version 7.2) update notes
- Improved material support
Inspector now offers better support for native Revit materials commonly used in architectural decor and mechanical equipment. This enhances the overall visual quality of architectural scenes and delivers more detailed model displays.
- Streamlined scene loading
The loading process for architectural scenes in Inspector has been streamlined, resulting in smoother performance and a noticeably better user experience.
- Enhanced scene building workflow
The FactVerse platform has refined the workflow for creating architectural scenes from BIM models. The process now includes clear estimated completion times and fallback strategies for unexpected issues. These enhancements significantly lower construction costs and boost efficiency.
