Exciting New Features from DataMesh Director 6.0

Today, we are delighted to announce the official release of DataMesh Director 6.0, the industry-leading platform for digital twin content creation and collaboration. This latest version brings comprehensive upgrades to key functionalities, character actions, editing capabilities, and the user interface, offering users an even smoother and enhanced experience.

New Features of DataMesh Studio

Actions serve as the foundation for the expression and interactivity of DataMesh scenarios. In DataMesh Director 6.0, DataMesh Studio introduces seven types of actions: posture adjustment, dispersal, sectioning, disappearance, linking, coloring, and animation. With redesigned configuration methods, users can add these actions to any model node and independently customize the action effects for other nodes.

Linking: Users can now add linking actions to any scene element. Simply clicking on the element seamlessly transitions the scenario from the current page to the target page. Additionally, users have the flexibility to set the trigger range for the linking action within the scene using a convenient drag-and-drop feature, enabling flexible transitions in 3D scenes.

Sectioning: Users can apply sectioning actions to any node and configure the sectioning effects for other nodes, including the sectioning direction and animation. Unlike previous versions, where sectioning was limited to the entire model, version 6.0 enables users to set individual sectioning for each level of child objects. Furthermore, animations have been added for the appearance and disappearance of sectioning actions. DataMesh Studio offers three types of slicing animations to choose from: slicing along the X-axis, Y-axis, or Z-axis.

Dispersal: The dispersal action enables quick disassembly of models. Two methods, explosion and linear dispersal, are available. In version 6.0, users have the flexibility to manually adjust the positions of dispersed models and add dispersal actions to child objects. Alternatively, all dispersal configurations can be completed within a single dispersal action.

Coloring: With the coloring action, users can change the color of any model node, whether it’s the entire model or individual child objects. Two styles of coloring, gradient and flickering, are supported to achieve the desired visual effects.

New Features of DataMesh Importer

Support for Cloud Resources: Importer now allows users to directly open files from the cloud by selecting the “File – Open From Cloud” option.

Model Material Editing: Importer not only reads crucial information such as triangle count, vertex count, texture count, and material count, but also allows users to modify material properties. Materials define surface characteristics, such as color, reflection, and transparency, significantly impacting the appearance and visual effects. Users can now replace the original material with commonly used materials, including metal, wood, plastic, glass, marble, glaze, and concrete.

Moreover, users can adjust various properties, such as color, transparency, metallicness, and smoothness. These properties can be adjusted individually or collectively, providing users with the flexibility to effortlessly achieve their desired effects.

New Features of DataMesh One

DataMesh One has undergone a complete interface redesign, optimizing and enhancing the overall user experience.

DataMesh Director 6.0 is now available on supported application stores, and existing customers who have purchased DataMesh SaaS services can directly upgrade their clients. For product trials, subscriptions, and collaborations, please feel free to contact us directly at service@datamesh.com. We are excited to support you on your journey with DataMesh Director 6.0.

DataMesh FactVerse Now Showcased at Singtel’s FutureNow Innovation Centre

Singapore, November 7, 2022 – DataMesh FactVerse, an Enterprise Metaverse platform for frontline workers, can now be experienced at Singtel’s FutureNow Innovation Centre (FIC), an innovation platform designed to provide customer-centric experiences of compelling use cases by Singtel and its extensive partner ecosystem. DataMesh is collaborating with Singtel to feature two special 5G-enabled showcases at FIC’s Industry 4.0 bay, a digital twin of a smart factory and XR-based 3D modeling training and guidance solution at construction sites.

DataMesh’s industry-leading digital twin and XR-based innovations are in line with the six key industry clusters from the Singapore Government’s Industry Transformation Maps – namely Manufacturing, Built Environment, Trade & Connectivity, Professional Services, and Essential Domestic Services – which the FIC is designed to support.

About the FutureNow Innovation Centre

The FIC features a suite of state-of-the-art technologies that combines Singtel’s technological expertise in ICT and digital services, such as cloud, software-defined networks, data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT), robotics and 5G. Leveraging these technologies, Singtel helps enterprises transform their business models, unlock new growth opportunities, enhance customer experiences and drive productivity.

About FactVerse

DataMesh FactVerse is an Enterprise Metaverse that brings open-world gaming architecture and scenario designers to the enterprise world, breaking the barrier of spatial data processing and real-time 3D collaboration. This enables frontline workers to harness modern technology and increases productivity at the workplace. Since its official launch in 2022, FactVerse has been widely adopted in automotive factories, cargo airports and large arenas.

FIC presently features two showcases with FactVerse and 5G-enabled innovations from Singtel.

Showcase 1: 5G-enabled Digital Twin in Smart Manufacturing

The first showcase is an Enterprise Metaverse scenario – a digital twin of a smart factory powered by Singtel Paragon, the industry’s first all-in-one platform for 5G network, edge computing and services orchestration. The showcase highlights the efficacy of 5G and its impact on productivity with the concept of a typical smart manufacturing line.

A connection is set up between the models and the physical world through data configuration. Based on the real-time data transferred by 5G/4G, the digital twin demonstrates the status of the physical production line, including motion paths, speed, time spent on a specific task, and the differences in performance when utilizing 5G versus 4G.

The scene intuitively illustrates the advantages of 5G and the incredibly vast opportunities for commercialization of 5G and digital twins to help the digitalization of factories, through real-time monitoring, control, full-scope multi-end simulation, and many other purposes with cost-saving and upgraded performance.

Showcase 2: Digital Twin in Construction

The second showcase features a joint solution currently being trialed at Sentosa in Singapore, in partnership with Gammon and Singtel. It introduces an innovative way of construction, which traditionally involves complicated blueprints and endless inefficient verbal on-site instructions.

In this scene, or at a real construction site, engineers can easily provide XR-based 3D modeling training and guidance to frontline workers with DataMesh Director. The whole process is intuitive for end-users and requires zero coding experience. All collaborators, designers, inspectors and construction workers – whether on-site or remotely, can view the models simultaneously from different angles, and touch and change the model’s properties. The process for construction has never been so seamlessly smooth.

Besides introducing the application of 5G, digital twin and XR in industrial scenarios, these showcases demonstrate the ease with which advanced technologies such as the Industrial Metaverse can be handled by ordinary users – lowering the barrier to entry for cutting-edge applications that used to be accessible only to IT/OT professionals.

“We are excited to collaborate with FIC to create more innovative and impactful showcases of emerging technologies to support enterprises globally,” said Jacky Chan, Managing Partner of DataMesh Singapore. “We look forward to partnering with more industry leaders like Singtel to democratize digital twin and XR to support the digital transformation of enterprises and create greater outcomes for the society.”
