Hi,
What File Formats can you view on Autodesk 360 Tech Preview? I have loaded NWD and RVT so far but dont seem to be able to see the models, just the file uploaded. Does it take a certain amount of time to generate?

Hi Bud, this is internal training just now yes. We have built a new training center, and the 3D interactive animations using Inventor Publisher in 360 are really a big hit with people. A group can stand up and interact with the tools on the white board instead of just watching a video or reading a manual. Its much more engaging, and stays with people a lot longer than any traditional learning tools.
It's a pity your existing 360 setup for deploying this is so unsecure/unmanagable in the browser for sharing the files forcing files to be downloadable, and especially with the iPad / iPhone implimentation of the viewer, you dont even need a password to view all the previously viewed files on it, so our IP is at risk with your entire 360 sytem as it stands just now.
I have been telling Autodesk on forums for a while now, our software supplier [Symetri] was so impressed with the interactive 3D on the board that he's told you guys to come see it in the UK. The white board manufacturer had not seen it either. Were going to start using it for staff induction to introduce people to our core IP and the products we build and soon probably the fabrication guys will have iPads to view the products and parts before they fab them to reduce the risk of mistakes, all using Inventor Publisher. It might be in the field as well for the techs to use as an interactive manuals as well.
I'm not sure you guys know what you have accidentaly created with this, as the interactive training is stunning to see, I come from game development making serious games for training, and this ticks most of the boxes in the simplest way to create it, but if for some reason you are dropping the functionality with the new release, you will find me knocking on your door to ask where its gone.
I'm waiting for the 2015 version of Inventor Publisher to be a massive jump in usability and functionanlity across the board, as well as the iPad viewer, coupled with what I hope are significant improvements to security and management in 360 in the 3rd quarter. If for some reason the 3D .instruction format gets lost in all this and i cant use it or you guys think its not used much, so push it down the priority list, I'm going to kick up a massive fuss.
I'm developing next gen training and learning content here. I am not sure you know what potential this has yet!
Do me a favour, send this to the Inventor Publisher and 360 guys, they have a lot of work to do so I can WOW more people!
Regards, Steve
Hi Steve,
I'd be interested in hearing more about how you're using Autodesk 360 for your training purposes. (I work on the learning content for Autodesk 360 and am always looking for ideas.)
Please let me know if you'd like to discuss.
Thank you!
Chris
