iQagent vs eDrawings

iQagent is an award winning 'Practical' Augmented Reality app that recognizes equipment on your plant floor using QR Codes (Points Of Interest) and displays relevant live process data, schematics and other resources about it on your iPad or iPhone. For instance, you could scan a QR code an assembly line with your iPhone or iPad, and show the number of units produced, production rate, and number of rejects, all live data from your HMI, SCADA, PLC (via OPCDA or OPCUA) or Database via ODBC. You can also view preventative maintenance procedures and trouble reports from your local systems, or call up production schedules from a database, or email or call a vendor or supervisor. iQagent is also a holistic data display and recorder for industrial and process environments. It will allow you to make your plant floor a data rich environment where you can access live process data, documentation, and resource links on specific machines, equipment, and processes on the plant floor. Recent Awards: - Sikorsky Innovation Award, Honorable Mention, 2015 - Tabby/Business - Best Business Intelligence, and Resource App, 2014 - Control Engineering Apps For Engineers (Finalist) 2013 - Plant Engineering's Product Of The Year, Gold Award, 2012 How It Works: Using the iQagent configuration utility, create and configure Point Of Interest (POIs) for equipment, machines, work cells and processes around your plant. The POI Data View shows live process data you configure by browsing your existing SCADA, HMI, PLC or DCS via OPCDA or ODBC. You can also configure charts to show the data such as trends, bar graphs or pie charts. The POI Info View allows you to associate any document, URL, email address or other resource to allow for quick access. Next, print each POI's QR code and place them near the actual equipment or process in the plant or environment. On the Plant floor, use the iQagent iPad App to scan the QR Codes to show the data views for POI. You can also quickly view any POI by simply browsing to them. There is even a favorites list for quick access. Having problems with your process, or unscheduled downtime? iQagent can help resolve these costly problems quickly! Use our patented record or snapshot features to record the problem, which includes everything on the display: live Data Views, Info Views, video and your annotations directly on the screen. The audio feed will capture the process sounds and operator feedback on the issue. The resulting mp4 video is a holistic representation of your process which can be emailed or sent to offsite support personnel who can quickly identify and isolate the problem without waiting for them to come to the site! iQagent works with Apple TV, so the display can be streamed to your conference room's HDTV, allowing management to review process issues real time without having to disturb production. iQagent comes with a full featured internal mode to allow scanning of QR Codes and simulated data and info views. Visit us online for sample QR Codes that work with the demo mode for testing. Features: Display live process data and info views anywhere you have a connection (wireless or 4G). Instant access to relevant data for any configured POI: Live data (PLC, SCADA or ODBC), charts, documents, URLs, email addresses, work order requests, or intranet data sites. Record holistic videos, including Live video from process, data and document overlays; audio from user and on screen notes. Send these recordings to remote technical staff for quick problem analysis.

eDrawings® is the only CAD viewer on iPad, iPad mini, iPhone and iPod Touch that allows you to view native eDrawings files as well as native SolidWorks® parts, assemblies and drawings files. In addition, eDrawings allows convenient viewing of DWG and DXF files. eDrawings includes Augmented Reality (AR). This allows you to view your 3D models in 1:1 scale into the real world. By simply activating the device’s camera, you can bring your virtual 3D designs in a real context and see them in situ, sitting on your desk or on your conference room table or even in the palm of your hand, through your iPad, Pad mini, iPhone or iPod Touch’s screen. Move around the room and see your design from any perspective. eDrawings is the email-enabled communication tool that dramatically eases sharing of product design information. You can load and send files via email to collaborate more effectively with everyone involved in product development, including people who are not regular CAD software users to interpret and understand 2D and 3D designs. Multi-touch gestures let you pan, zoom, and rotate models easily. eDrawings also supports configurations, drawing sheets, and exploded views for eDrawings files published from SolidWorks® and all other supported CAD software. Features: * Intuitive and easy-to-use user interface * Visualize your 3D models in real context with Augmented Reality (AR) * Open 3D (EASM, EPRT, SLDASM, SLDPRT, IGES, IGS, JT, STEP, STP, IFC), 2D (EDRW, SLDDRW, DWG, DXF) and associated files from any source: email attachments, cloud storage services (Dropbox™, SkyDrive®, Google Drive, YouSendIt®, and others), web and FTP sites, networks, and iTunes® File Sharing. * Zoom, pan and rotate your 2D or 3D CAD data using multi-touch * Animate 3D standard views as well as 2D drawing views. * Browse your assembly components tree, configurations and drawing sheets * View your designs in full screen and double tap to fit it on screen * Adapt the scale of your 3D model in AR mode * Freeze the background in AR mode with viewpoint lock to prolong AR experience without holding up your device. * Sample files included For more information, visit: http://www.edrawingsviewer.com
