Abstract
A computer-implemented system for representing a production environment comprises a modeling module that creates a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of a production environment. The system also includes a view module that renders a graphical depiction of at least a portion of the three-dimensional model from a reference point that is based at least in part upon a location. Methods of using the system are also provided.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- rendering a field of view of an industrial automation environment based on a location in the industrial automation environment;
- and
- displaying at least one of data and metadata associated with the field of view.
A device, comprising:
- a memory that stores a rendering component configured to render a field of view of an industrial automation environment based on a location in the industrial automation environment and to display at least one of data and metadata associated with the field of view;
- and
- a processor configured to facilitate execution of the rendering component.
A computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause a computing device to carry out acts, comprising:
- rendering a second field of view of the industrial automation environment based on a second location in the industrial automation environment;
- and
- displaying at least one of second data and second metadata associated with the field of view.
