Development of a prototype for a disruptive cross-sectoral and multi-database 3D shape-based search engine platform with associated APIs, plug-ins and Apps. The site will leverage the company’s cutting-edge 3D search technology at its core and will include a suite of related APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) for integration throughout the Internet, as well as Apps for use on mobile devices.The platform will be tailored to key sectors and the APIs will allow integration with partnerand client sites. The platform will also incorporate leading APIs and features from partnersacross the supply chain, including 3D scanners, 'Augmented Reality' viewers and 3D printers.Target sectors include manufacturing, 3D printing / additive manufacturing, architecture,furniture, robotics, scientific research, medicine and online gaming.The platform will disrupt the process of part and design sourcing across these global sectors and supply chains, spurring a revolution in efficiency of matching and global access to suppliers and buyers. At the regional and national level, it will position the UK at the forefront of internet-empowered digital industrialisation, additive manufacturing and next generation 3D shape search technology.Proof of concept has successfully demonstrated the feasibility and potential of the proposition, both technically and commercially. Early feedback from the industrial and internet sectors has been overwhelmingly positive and eager and the company needs to respond quickly to capitalise on the opportunity. Significant progress and development has been made and the project is now ready for the next stage towards large-scale commercialisation.The approach and technology are strongly defensible, unique and inimitable, givingsignificant confidence, opportunity and competitive advantage.

开发一个具有颠覆性的跨部门和多数据库3D形状搜索引擎平台原型，以及相关的API、插件和应用程序。该网站将利用该公司尖端的3D搜索技术为核心，并将包括一套相关的API(应用程序编程接口)，用于整个互联网，以及用于移动设备的应用程序。平台将为关键行业量身定做，API将允许与合作伙伴和客户网站集成。该平台还将整合供应链上合作伙伴的领先API和功能，包括3D扫描仪、增强现实查看器和3D打印机。目标行业包括制造业、3D打印/添加剂制造、建筑、家具、机器人、科学研究、医药和在线游戏。该平台将扰乱这些全球行业和供应链的零部件和设计采购流程，刺激匹配效率和全球供应商和买家的准入革命。在地区和国家层面，它将使英国处于互联网驱动的数字工业化、添加剂制造和下一代3D形状搜索技术的前沿。Proof Concept成功地证明了这一提议的可行性和潜力，无论是在技术上还是在商业上。来自工业和互联网行业的早期反馈绝大多数都是积极和迫切的，该公司需要迅速做出反应，以利用这个机会。该项目已取得重大进展和发展，现已为下一阶段的大规模商业化做好准备。方法和技术具有很强的防御性、独特性和不可模仿性，给人以重大的信心、机会和竞争优势。
