System and method for predictive visualization in an industrial application

A computer program product for predictive visualization in an industrial application, said computer program product comprising:

• a storage medium configured to store computer readable instructions;
• said computer readable instructions including instructions for,
• loading a venue comprising a digital rendering of the industrial application and comprising a plurality of digital models representing objects in the industrial application;
• creating a radiating chit based on a user defined activity for each of said plurality of digital models in said venue;
• generating an instance of data layer corresponding to said venue;
• determining if any of said user defined activities are scheduled on overlapping times, and if none of said user defined activities are scheduled on time, proceeding with said user defined activity, and if any one of said user defined activities are scheduled on time, creating a radiating mesh for each of said digital models defined in said venue;
• utilizing said radiating meshes to determine a collision, if a collision is not found, proceeding with said user defined activity, and if a collision is found, notifying the user about the collision;
• and
• visualizing the collision on said venue.

A system for predictive visualization in an industrial application, said system comprising:

• a process configured to load a user venue comprising a digital rendering of the industrial application and comprising a plurality of digital models representing objects in the industrial application;
• a process configured to create a radiating chit based on a user defined activity for each of said plurality of digital models in said user venue;
• a process configured to generate an instance of a data layer corresponding to said user venue;
• a process configured to determine if any of said user defined activities are scheduled on overlapping times, and if none of said user defined activities are scheduled on time, proceeding with said user defined activity, and if any one of said user defined activities are scheduled on overlapping times, said process being configured to create a radiating mesh for each of said respective digital models in said venue;
• a process configured to determine a collision between one or more of said digital models utilizing said radiating meshes, if a collision is not found, proceeding with said user defined activity, and said being configured to issue a notification if a collision is found;
• and
• a process configured to visualize the collision on the digital rendering of said user venue and comprising a collision pop-up window configured to be displayed in said user venue.

A computer-implemented process for predictive visualization in an industrial application, said computer-implemented process comprising:

• generating a user metaverse for the industrial application, said user metaverse comprising a digital rendering of the industrial application and a plurality of digital models representing objects in the industrial application;
• creating an activity for each of said objects and a corresponding radiating mesh;
• generating an instance of a data layer for said metaverse, said data layer instance including said activity for each of said objects;
• detecting if there is a collision based on an overlap between two of said activities in said data layer instance;
• if there is a collision detected, broadcasting a check collision to an alternate metaverse, said alternate metaverse being rendered and including the objects in said user metaverse, and said alternate metaverse being normally hidden from said user;
• performing a first level collision detection comprising determining if said two objects have come into contact in said alternate metaverse;
• if a first level collision is detected, performing a second level collision detection, and if said second level collision detection confirms the collision, then generating a collision found notification;
• and
• sending said collision found notification to said user metaverse.
