Bombardier Aerospace wanted to investigate the feasibility of an online interactive environment for 3D aircraft visualization and repair engineering data. The application had to run in realtime and at high performance to fulfill the requirements of aircraft operators worldwide.
JRX developed a custom application with a Flash viewport supported by a geometry database back-end. Bombardier selected the CRJ-900 aircraft to be virtualized in 3D including the repair data cloud specific to this model. The finished model is stored in a relational database that allows thousands of parts to be queried independently.
JRX successfully developed custom software that exploits the power and availability of the Flash Player to run real time 3D visualization within the browser. The software performance exceeded expectations; the reception among the aircraft operators was overwhelmingly positive.
