  • Determining vendor components, kits, and logistics based on construction drawings
    Patent number: 11836676
    Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein provide a server that receives a drawing. The server matches assembly types to elements in the drawing and inserts a symbol overlay into the drawing. The symbol overlay includes metadata identifying the assembly types in the drawing. The assembly types are matched to assemblies, including kits, based on user-identified criteria, such as vendor and building codes. The system can then determine logistics for delivering the kits, automatically staggering shipment where dictated by build order of the kits.

  • VIRTUALIZED COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN
    Publication number: 20200104430
    Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein virtualize computer-aided-design (“CAD”). A licensing server stores designer profiles, allowing customers to select a designer by availability and experience factors for working on a project. The designer can then login and control a virtual machine (“VM”) configured for the project. The system can allocate a license to an application within the VM, allowing the designer to use the VM without purchasing the full license. The customer can separately log in and be presented with access to a project folder.
