David Reeves, vice president, sales, PTC commented: ”This 30 seat theatre provides the showcase for our leading PLM technology, Pro/ENGINEER® and Windchill, as well as our advanced visualization solution, MockUp. We naturally want our software to be shown in a world-class manner with the best image quality possible. Virtalis is well known for its technical knowledge, especially its understanding of PTC’s products. They have supplied us with a complete solution which features precise 3D tracking.”

Andrew Connell, Virtalis’ technical director, said: ”This is a high-end, three-channel rear-projected active stereo system. PTC’s customers want to be able to visualise complex data models at 1:1 scale. The ability of our system to show the Mockup application across a PC cluster, instead of a proprietary supercomputer, gives them that capability at PTC’s Head Office. There will be some fabulous demos given here in the future!”
