[CAX speak] large-capacity flat for CAD

 

Gfxspeak has a new article "New 123 GB iPad a natural for CAD". For Apple's large-capacity tablet devices, piaoger listened to some comments from the industry and thought it was interesting, and take notes.

 

1. Industry Leaders

Autodesk:

Autodesk has released a lot of iPad applications, which are the trend in the CAD flat field.

Those in charge of AutoCAD and AutoCAD ws obviously welcome larger flat devices. They think that the user data is usually relatively large, with high requirements on capacity and performance. Large-capacity devices can solve this problem, so that users can edit and browse design data anywhere.

 

2. small players

Compared with the industry leaders who are making calls in the industry, those small players are not very excited.

Cadfaster

Cadfaster also believes that in the CAD/Bim industry, most users prefer the offline mode for mobile application software. Thanks to the large capacity, 3D programs can cache model data locally.

In their view, powerful cloud optimization and adequate local cache are the key to a better user experience.

Sunglass. Io

Sunglass. Io is more relaxed than cadfaster. They believe that large-capacity tablets can alleviate bandwidth and streaming technology constraints in a short period of time. For CAD applications, local cache will certainly help improve user experience.

However, taking YouTube as an example, he said that ignoring this expansion can lead to success.

 

3. piaoger

The ass decides the head, and the idea of the big guy and the small player is always different. While piaoger's ass is sitting on the computer chair and can only be filled with clouds. The summary of the article exactly represents my heart. Accept:

Companies that want to deploy the 128 GB iPad to avoid the cloud revolution are living on borrowed time.
