If you are interested in learning about the Internet of Things (IoT) and PTC’s IoT Development platform, ThingWorx, and here are a few links that will help you get up to speed.The PTC Academic Program has launched a new destination learning website for all things IoT featuring content from across the web and social media on the Internet of Things - http://www.iotportfolio.net/ In addition, the team has released a series of free online courses about the Internet of Things available worldwide through Udemy, an established provider of MOOCs. The following PTC IoT courses are hosted on Udemy and are now available: Unpacking the IoT (https://www.udemy.com/unpacking-the-internet-of-things/) focuses on unpacking the Internet of Things by describing the fundamental changes that are taking place at a product level; namely how things are becoming smart and connected. Simple Framework for Designing IoT Products (https://www.udemy.com/a-simple-framework-for-designing-iot-products/) provides a basi

The PTC Academic Team developed a simple Android App that demonstrates Augmented Reality using FIRST robots, and released it for FIRST World Championship 2016 in St. Louis, MO.  Download the app here - PTC+FIRST AR Robots - Android Apps on Google PlayBring FIRST robots with you wherever you go with the PTC + FIRST Augmented Reality Robots app on your mobile device. Instantly be able to show an example of a FIRST Lego League, FIRST Tech Challenge, or FIRST Robotics Competition robot. Utilizing the Vuforia vision-based augmented reality software, this app allows the user to explore each of the robot models from any angle. The app uses the FIRST program logos for its image recognition targets. The vertical program logos are used to project the robot from a table-top or floor, while the horizontal program logos are used to project the robot from a wall. You can download and print your own target cards from this link - http://apps.ptc.com/schools/FIRST/AR/ARrobots_targetcards.pdf.Relea

I am posting this in the FIRST section only because I am proposing a simplification for FIRST teams to develop gears that are highly functional and super easy to define.  By no means am I proposing to replace established gear manufacturing methods.  I specifically propose this variation due to the advent of rapid prototyping technology where tooling and conventional manufacturing methods require no consideration.There are few advantages to the proposed Round Tooth^tm method.The tooth is inherently stronger since they have no undercut requirements.Manual meshing of teeth is nearly foolproof.Common conventions can be used for defining tooth profiles.Parametric relations can generate any spur/ pinion/ring gear and spline pair with ease.Spline drives also have a great strength advantage.Internal tooth profiles are easily compensated.RoundTooth^tm can also be adapted for bevel gears....and I am sure I've overlooked several more.The only downside I can see is that this there is som

Lots of teams are looking for a way to add content to their Cost Accounting Worksheet (Bill of Materials) from their CAD models. There are a number of ways to do this and I'd like to share a few methods.   Creo Parametric Assembly Model From Creo Parametric, click on the Tools tab to access the Bill of Materials button. Once you've selected the assembly and options, an interactive HTML page will be displayed in the embedded browser. A file will also be created in your local working directory named <assembly_name>.bom.#. You can open this file with any text editor (maybe remove the .1 and change the extension to TXT) and edit it as needed. Once complete, you can save as CSV or just open in Excel to get the information you'd like to have.   If you really want to dig into the formatting of the BOM output, check out the HelpCenter topic named About Bill of Materials (BOM).     Creo Parametric Assembly Drawing Create an assembly drawing and add a repeat region tab

     I was  sending data to the thingworx by Arduino Yun. When I plugged the USB power, it worked well. However, after a while I couldn't see any new data on the Thing/Properties. And the QueryPropertyHistory services told me the data hadn't been updated. When I re-plugged the USB power, it still worked well. Why? Could you help me?The core codes are:String setData("curl "  "\"http://"+TWServer+":"+TWPort+"/Thingworx/Things/DHT21Thing/Properties/*?appKey="+appKey+"\""  " -X PUT "  "-i -H \"Content-Type:application/json\" "  "-H \"Accept:application/json\" "  "-d '{\"Temperature\" :" + tempAsString + ", \"Humidity\" :" + humidityAsString + "}' "  );  Serial.println("Set Data: "+ setData);    // run the curl command with the REST call that was build in the setTemperature String variable p.runShellCommand(setData);

Hi, I need solution or suggestion  for my issue   I want to handle the events like when you click the up arrow(shared in attachment) number will increase. when you click down arrow decrease the number. let me know Thingworx provides this kind of functionality ?   Please the check the attached image file.     Thanks, Azeez.A

     Hi, I'm using http rest API by ArduinoYun. The question is, I want to send mutiple data to thingworx in one request. For example, I want to send temperautre and humidity to thongworx, now I use two request such ascurl http://zucc.cloud.thingworx.com:80/Thingworx/Things/DHT21Thing/Properties/Temperature?appKey=deaf648e-e691-4e9e-88a9-1a8…curl http://zucc.cloud.thingworx.com:80/Thingworx/Things/DHT21Thing/Properties/Humidity?appKey=deaf648e-e691-4e9e-88a9-1a80b21145c3&method=put&value=66I think maybe it could be zipped. Am i right?

Is there a way to transfer Creo licence from old to new server?

When attempting to download Creo 3.0 student version, the "PTC Creo View Express" application is "unsuccessfully" downloaded and prevents the other applications from installing. I have had this issue 3-4 times now and have tried both the 32 and 64 bit versions. I am on a 64 bit windows 7 ultimate operating system. Any ideas on what the issue might be?

Hello,I am trying to update a remote property with a non-changing string using an always on connection. I can successfully connect to the server and update properties. If I send a string, the remote property I have created does not update with the string. If I change the content of the string on the edge device and resend, the remote property updates with the new string. This happens for all subsequent string changes. The only problem is the initial string. If I replicate the same circumstances with a REST connection, the initial string makes it through to the server.I think this may be a server side problem and that the remote property is only updating when the property changes. I have modified the remote property to ALWAYS PUSHED and the initial property then makes it through but this uses up a lot more unnecessary server resources. If I give the remote property a default value, the initial string still does not make it through.I would like the value of remote string property to upda

Hi everybody.I'm using the Creo 2.0 Student version. Yesterday I installed Windows 10 on my computer (the previous operative system I had was Windows 7).Until yesterday Creo 2.0 was working; after the upgrade to Windows 10 I got this problem: License request failed for feature.I've already tried to do what written in http://apps.ptc.com/schools/references/support_reorder_network.pdf, but still I have this problem!Is it possible to solve it even if I have installed Windows 10? What's the solution??Thanks.

Thanks
