Physna is an AI-powered geometric deep learning technology. The software uses proprietary algorithms to codify 3D models into detailed data that is understandable by software applications and powers 3D geometric search. The addition of machine-learning adds a powerful dimension as users search their product data repositories.
A New Approach to an Old Problem
What began as a question in the mind of a patent lawyer in Germany, “Is there a way to recognize 3D models?” to aid in the protection of intellectual property (IP), has blossomed into an artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled, 3D geometric search engine called Physna (physna.com). The name according to Physna CEO, Mr. Paul Powers stands for “physical DNA,” and offers a bridge between the digital world and the physical world. 3D search is a foundational element of the Physna solution, but it is not its raisons d’être.
