JSC “Zelenodolsk Design Bureau” Accelerates Approval with ESI IC.IDO
Virtual RealityMarine 
We have considered various alternative systems and approaches to optimize the compartment acceptance process, including VR systems with game engines which provided very high level graphics and visualization quality. However, they appeared to be unsuitable for the engineering and construction tasks to be performed. We have chosen ESI IC.IDO, which allows us to make effective decisions not only in the construction domain, but also with ergonomic studies.
Challenge
When Zelenodolsk Design Bureau designed compartments for marine vessels, approval was a lengthy process. How long depended on the complexity of compartments and the number of departments contributing to design. Full size models of packed compartments were constructed in dedicated mock-up sections, which required a considerable investment in time and money.
