From 2D to 3D: how YZAR is revolutionizing the understanding of industrial sites with “Triple Views”

Cover From 2D to 3D: how YZAR is revolutionizing the understanding of industrial sites with “Triple Views”

In the industrial world, understanding how complex facilities work and are laid out remains a constant challenge. How can new operators be trained while ensuring their safety? How can maintenance work be prepared without increasing travel? To address these challenges, YZAR has unveiled "Triple Views", an innovative tool designed to provide a comprehensive, fluid, and intelligent view of technical facilities. This tool perfectly embodies the promise of Industry 4.0: connecting technical data to reality on the ground.

A 360° view (and much more)

Behind its simple concept—combining three representations of the same facility—the Triple Views tool hides remarkable technological sophistication. The tool integrates three types of interconnected visualizations:

  • the 2D view, to understand the what;
  • the 360° view, to locate the where;
  • the 3D view, to experience the how.

By bringing these three dimensions together in a single fluid interface, YZAR offers an immersive experience that revolutionizes the understanding of industrial sites.

The 2D view: the universal language of engineers

It all starts with the technical plan, or PID (Piping and Instrumentation Diagram). This standardized representation used by industrial sites illustrates circuits, valves, and equipment in a schematic way. It forms the basis for understanding the industrial process: the theoretical operation before any action is taken in the field. Thanks to the Triple Views tool, this abstract basis becomes the entry point to a much more concrete experience.

The 360° view: immersion in reality

With a single click, the user moves from the plan to reality. The 360° view offers high-definition photographic immersion in the real environment of the facility. It allows users to precisely locate equipment, its position, access points, and spatial context. This approach makes it possible to prepare for an intervention without traveling to the site, to identify potential obstacles, and to understand the actual conditions on the ground.

The 3D model: the interactive digital twin

The 3D view is the technological heart of the solution, bringing the industrial site to life. Each component is accurately modeled: volumes, positions, connections. The model can be manipulated, animated, enriched with technical data, and used for procedure simulations. Training, diagnostics, maintenance scenarios... 3D becomes a tool for learning and preparing technical interventions without risk and without interrupting production.

Smart navigation between views

The key innovation of YZAR lies in the automatic synchronization between these three viewing modes. Select a valve on the 2D plan? It instantly appears in the 3D view and is located in the 360° view. Each action triggers an update of the other perspectives. This interconnection transforms the way teams access technical information, while eliminating the time wasted on manual searches.

Concrete applications for industry

The Triple Views tool is already establishing itself as a cross-functional tool for training, maintenance, and asset management.

  • Training and skills development: new operators learn about the process in 2D, familiarize themselves with it in 360°, and then practice in 3D on concrete cases.
  • Preventive and corrective maintenance: technicians prepare their interventions with precision, without prior on-site reconnaissance, thanks to the digital twin.
  • Projects and modernization: teams visualize the impacts of a modification before work begins, facilitating coordination and communication.

A strategic lever for Industry 4.0

Beyond its technical prowess, the Triple Vues tool illustrates a strong conviction: visual and contextual understanding of technical data is a performance and safety accelerator. The benefits of this tool are concrete:

  • drastically reducing training and preparation time,
  • making interventions safer thanks to a comprehensive understanding of the environment,
  • promoting collaboration between professions through a common visual language.

It is a true cognitive twin at the service of industrial productivity.

Towards a new era of industrial asset management

By merging 2D, 360°, and 3D into a single interface, YZAR demonstrates that the future of asset management lies in a unified and intelligent view of data. The Triple View tool does not simply juxtapose three technologies: it creates an integrated, intuitive, and powerful experience. This advance is fully in line with the dynamics of Industry 4.0, where the digitization of processes is becoming a major driver of competitiveness.
