VE-DRIVE: Virtual Enterprise - Digital Resource Integration, Visualisation & Exploitation

Ve-Drive是一个128万GB、为期两年的合作研发项目，由技术战略委员会和项目合作伙伴共同资助。来自不同市场部门和供应链位置的4个项目合作伙伴分别是BAE系统公司、Theorem Solution和Holovis International，以及由Axillium Research提供的项目主管捷豹路虎和项目管理支持。数字工具每天用于为全球市场设计、开发、生产、交付和支持产品。从“OEM”到整个供应链，都有一个共同的需求，即连接这些数字流程，将产品推向市场，为其提供支持，并获取从概念到服务环境的市场输入。通过该项目，财团合作伙伴旨在产生技术和专业知识，以连接供应链上的数字技术，并提供在新的数字和身临其境的环境中直接将数字产品开发方法与消费者联系起来的关键创新。通过将新一代连接的数字环境应用于产品生命周期，该项目将通过用户与数字“展厅”和更广泛的“虚拟”环境中的虚拟信息、内容和服务的直接交互，在所有阶段直接增加价值。

VE-DRIVE is a £1.28m, 2-year collaborative research and development project co-funded by the Technology Strategy Board and the project partners. The 4 project partners from across market sectors and supply chain positions are BAE Systems, Theorem Solution and Holovis International with project lead Jaguar Land Rover, and Project Management support provided by Axillium Research.Digital tools are used daily to design, develop, produce, deliver and support products for global markets. From the ‘OEM’ and throughout the supply chain there is a common requirement to connect these digital processes to bring products to market, support them, and capture market input from concept through to the in-service environment. Through this project, the consortium partners aim to generate technology and expertise to connect digital technologies across supply chains and deliver the key innovation of directly linking digital product development approaches to the consumer in new digital and immersive environments. By applying a new generation of connected, digital environments to product life cycle, this project will add value directly at all stages through direct user interaction with virtual information, content and services in digital ‘showrooms’ and wider ‘virtual’ environments.
