3Dsolve Incorporated, founded in 2001 and based in Cary, North Carolina, develops collaborative simulation learning systems. Products are built on realistic, interactive, 3D graphics technologies. The company's systems support facility, device, and process training. The 3Dsolve programs also integrate with third-party learning management systems. The company is known for its 3Dnerve, 3Dwave, 3D4M, and Croquet technologies. The 3Dnerve platform streamlines the creation of simulation-based multimedia courseware. It employs Macromedia (R) Shockwave (R) technology. The system allows users to simulate 2D and 3D objects, processes, and environments. The 3Dwave platform, built on Macromedia Shockwave and eXtensible Markup Language (XML) technologies, supports the creation of third-person, overhead perspective courseware simulations. Content can be distributed through CD-ROM or web channels. The 3D4M real-time 3D e-learning environment can be accessed by 1,000 students. Lab environments support up to 50 participants. Croquet open source software platform streamlines the design and deployment of collaboration applications. 3Dsolve's systems can be used to create large-scale learning simulations. The firm's products and services are employed by organizations across the life sciences, transportation, military, intelligence, and homeland security sectors. 3Dsolve has won recognition from ITEC, 'Military Training Technology,' and Ernst & Young.
