XM1202 Mounted Combat System
Digital mockup (DMU) is the digital description of a product, usually in 3D, for its entire life cycle. Digital mockup is enriched by all the activities that contribute to describing the product. The product
configure complex products and validate
their designs without ever needing to build a physical model.
Mockups helps to visualise how all design decisions play together, they are convincing and closely resemble the final product, it can be easily revised rather than much later in production stage, It also helps in visualisation of package design projects in 3D & speed up approvals.
Among the techniques and technologies which make this possible are:
- the use of visualize, analyze, and interact with large amounts of product data in real-time on standard desktop computers.
- direct interface to between Digital Mockups and PDM systems.
- active digital mockup technology that unites the ability to visualize the assembly mockup with the ability to measure, analyze, simulate, design and redesign.
