Launch of new product release for IMSE Designer® and IMSE Builder®

Launch of new product release for IMSE Designer® and IMSE Builder®

As part of our licenses, we offer IMSE Designer and IMSE Builder to our licensees, enabling them to independently design, manufacture, and promote IMSE® parts. 

IMSE Designer and IMSE Builder qualify our licensees to manufacture smart 3D surfaces using IMSE technology. IMSE Designer includes design concepts and guidelines to allow design teams of OEMs, brands, and professional specialty firms to bring innovative designs and human-machine interface concepts to life. 

IMSE Builder provides the opportunity for manufacturers to produce and manufacture IMSE parts. This package provides the licensee the know-how to manufacture the designs, test and verify, and produce quality IMSE products. 

The new release – version 2206.00 – of  IMSE Designer and Builder is a significant upgrade to the previous release and includes over 18 months of product updates in the form of design guidelines, material and stack updates, and brings new concepts for the development of smart applications.
