View, annotate, and discuss CAD models and CT scan data directly in your knowledge documents — 60fps hardware-accelerated rendering in the browser, no plugins required. Annotations anchor to geometry and sync to your engineering systems.

## engineering-grade-3d-in-the-browser

Engineering-Grade 3D in the Browser Hardware-accelerated 3D rendering that handles CAD models, CT scans, and analytical overlays at 60fps — directly in your knowledge documents. No plugins, no desktop software, no file downloads. Your engineers discuss designs where the knowledge lives. Annotations anchor to actual model geometry — not screenshots. Rotate the model, zoom in, and the annotation stays exactly where it belongs. Cross-section tools reveal internal structure. Measurement tools calculate distances, angles, and areas on the model surface.

## Beyond Static CAD Viewing

subtitle: Defect analysis, CT scan visualization, and production analytics — directly on your 3D models

### CT Scan Visualization

desc: Volumetric rendering of industrial CT scan data with automatic defect detection. Defects appear as 3D annotations with severity classification, confidence scores, and linked quality records.

### Analytics Overlays

desc: Heatmaps showing failure probability, stress distribution, or production metrics rendered directly on 3D geometry. Time-series animation tracks defect evolution across production batches.

### Engineering Context

desc: View a part and instantly see its BOM position, revision history, linked engineering changes, supplier data, and related analysis — all without leaving the 3D view.
