First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- storing three-dimensional representations of a plurality of objects within an industrial automation environment in memory of at least one computing device;
receiving a reference point related to a location in the industrial automation environment;
employing a processor to calculate a field of view based at least in part on the reference point and to render the three-dimensional representations filtered based at least in part on the field of view.

Abstract
A computer-implemented system for representing a production environment comprises a modeling module that creates a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of a production environment. The system also includes a view module that renders a graphical depiction of at least a portion of the three-dimensional model from a reference point that is based at least in part upon a location. Methods of using the system are also provided.
