In 10 years of major innovations offered to the 3D industry, Bionatics also managed to establish strategic and sustainable collaborations with the major players of the industry through technology or commercial cooperation. Bionatics considers that those partners listed below play a key role in Bionatics' development strategy to better serve the fast evolution needs of the market as well as its customer expectations worldwide.
Autodesk is the world software leader in the conception and digital creation for the PC system. Serving a large community from architects to local collectives, from territory management to video game developers, Autodesk is used by more than 4 million people from 160 countries around the world. Bionatics has integrated its EASYnat product into Autodesk® AutoCAD®, the CAD software's biggest selling world. Bionatics has also increased its natFX software applications into Autodesk® 3ds Max® and Autodesk® Maya®.
Since 2004, Bionatics has becomed a partner of PRESAGIS, the world leader in middle ware solutions for the Military simulation industry. Bionatics has integrated its Blueberry3D and REALnat Premium solutions into one of the flagship products of Presagis, Vega Prime.
In 2008, Bionatics became a partner of ABVENT, developer of the Art'lantis Render software by developing in collaboration with ABVENT a CD collection of Bionatics plants specially optimized for Art'lantis Render.
CIRAD's computer simulation technology has made it the world's most advanced agronomic research center. Bionatics has signed an exclusive and scientific partnership with CIRAD in 2000, concerning the technological transfer of the AMAP™ technology completed by a long term scientific collaboration.
Since 1940, IGN has charted French territory. Precursor to numerous technical innovations, IGN commercializes its know-how on a international scale. Stemming from a strategic partnership, Bionatics optimizes its LandSIM3D® software by coupling it with IGN's cartography. This alliance will streamline the database preparation process that visualize in 3D, large areas of land.
This partnership enables LandSim3D users to integrate a whole city or only a specific building of a Blom 3D™ models. The buildings can either be stored locally or accessed on-line through BlomURBEX 3D, the state-of-the-art on-line 3D streaming service provided by Blom. BlomURBEX 3D is a service built on BlomURBEX, a unique combination of geoserver and database that currently offers access to Blom 3D™ models from Europe, North America and South Africa.
Virtuel City and Bionatics cooperate commercially and technically since 2007 on 3D modeling projects of cities and territories in France and abroad. Under that cooperation, a complete workflow has been developed from acquisition, to production and storage of 3D data as well as a specific protocol to exploit them in an optimized way into LandSIM3D® though the RPC technology developed by Virtuel City. This collaboration facilitates especially the integration of large 3D city models as such as VCity3D, Carto3D and Bati3D.
