The main goals are to digitize existing physical assets and address the large amount of legacy engineering drawings that still only exist on paper. The startup has developed a custom algorithm using computer vision and AI to classify elements in scanned drawings and output CAD files. They are currently testing an MVP and plan to launch it for open testing in July 2021. The product has applications across industries like manufacturing, construction, facilities management, and more that involve digitizing existing physical infrastructure and engineering data.
4DFS-NZ New York Times Article
4th Dimensional Facade Solutions, a New Zealand design and build company, was named Autodesk Inventor of the Month for February 2012. Using Autodesk Inventor software, the company was able to design complex facades for projects more efficiently, saving an estimated 10,000 hours of work and $830,000 across three projects. Digital prototyping in Autodesk Inventor allowed 4th Dimensional Facade Solutions to validate designs and order exact materials amounts, reducing costs. The interoperability of Autodesk software also helped the company collaborate effectively with partners.
AutoCad Vs Revit Vs Maya
The document compares the 3D modeling software AutoCAD, Revit, and Maya. AutoCAD is for 2D mechanical drafting and design with integrated data management. Revit is a building information modeling (BIM) software used for architectural design, MEP, and structural engineering with features built for BIM. Maya is a 3D modeling, animation, and visual effects software used for computer games, movies, engineering and more, providing tools for modeling, animation, and effects creation.

The document discusses the Android Charting Component Library (ACCL) project sponsored by Netscout Systems. The project aims to develop a component library for charting in the native Android SDK to enhance charting performance and reduce application development load. It will include common chart types like pie, line, area, column, and bar charts. The library will benefit both application developers and Netscout in exploring the Android market. It is being developed in Java using the Android SDK and Eclipse IDE.
3D Building
The document describes a 3D building application created by students Omer Akram and Usman Shouket under the supervision of Mr. Ammar Rafiq and Ms. Adan Iqbal. The objective of the application is to allow constructors and architects to design 2D models by dragging and dropping objects, which will then automatically generate a 3D model. The application uses tools like Android Studio, Photoshop, Unity 3D and 3ds Max to import 2D objects, develop 2D models, convert them to 3D, and provide login and feedback features. So far the project has completed requirement gathering, planning, design, and implemented login and basic 2D/3D functionality.

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
