Porsche Groups with Epic Games on Design Innovation

Global Computer Aided Engineering Market

Porsche has joined forces with video game producer, Epic Games and a pioneer in graphic processing hardware, Nvidia, to exhibit what they tout as a leap forward in computer design rendering.

Canada: Porsche has joined with Epic Games, video game maker and Nvidia, a leader in graphic processing hardware, to establish what they vender as an innovation in computer design rendering. This system has already been used to develop the next-generation Porsche 911.

In the conference held in Vancouver, Canada, the company unveiled concept rendered using real-time ray-tracing software. Ray tracing is basically more realistically the way that how the light behaves.

Epic Games Unreal Engine teamed with a new-generation Nvidia graphic processing unit that will allow the designers to understand more precisely how light plays off different sides at various angles. The computerized model can be turned on flat and vertical tomahawks and the position and force of light sources changed to make reasonable shadows and central focuses.

The Porsche’s director said that this process is little time consuming and computer intensive. It could take up to 500 computers as long as an hour to produce a rendering. The system uses one computer armed with two new Nvidia Quatro RTX GPU cards and operates in real time.

According to TechSci Research, this team up of Porsche with Epic Games and Nvidia will have a positive impact on computer aided engineering as well as on Simulation & Analysis Software market. As pressure to remain competitive in the marketplace is increasing due to increasing demand for innovation and superior quality products from different regions across the globe. Surging requirement of application-specific simulation software can be accounted to its utilization in automotive end use industry to minimize manufacturing cost and reduce product lead time. Moreover, integration of computer aided engineering in product development lifecycle is expected to increase because of a paradigm shift is being witnessed in development of infrastructure to accelerate deployment of next generation technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, etc., and rising demand for manufacturing eco-friendly products to reduce carbon footprint.

According to the recently published report by TechSci Research, Global Computer Aided Engineering Market By Product Type (Finite Element Analysis & Computational Fluid Dynamics), By End Use Industry (Automotive, Aerospace & Defense, etc.), By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2012-2022”, Global computer aided engineering market stood at $ 5.04 billion in 2016, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.52% to reach $ 7.79 billion by 2022, on the back of increasing demand for innovation and superior quality products from across the globe, high expenditure on aerospace & defense sector, rising technological advancements and growing need for application-specific computer aided engineering (CAE) software. Upsurge in deployment of application-specific computer aided engineering software can be attributed to its utilization in Small & Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to minimize manufacturing costs and reduce product lead time. Moreover, integration of computer aided engineering in product development lifecycle is expected to increase because of a paradigm shift is being witnessed in development of infrastructure to accelerate deployment of next generation technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, etc., and rising demand for manufacturing eco-friendly products to reduce carbon footprint.
