Matryx Deepens Commitment to Open Source with Calcflow
Matryx, an open source platform for decentralized collaboration, is open sourcing Calcflow, the world’s first virtual reality (VR) graphing tool for mathematical modeling. Calcflow is one of the applications Matryx integrates to help its global users solve complex problems through 3D visualization and natural gesture interactions.
Calcflow is an intuitive VR interface for vector calculus and is used by scientists and engineers for both educational and commercial applications. Together, Matryx and Calcflow enable innovation at every level by providing a free and open forum for global collaboration.
Global reliance on open source software is rising as it becomes increasingly important to have software that encourages efficiency, code customization, and technical features that better meet user demands (see Black Duck 2017 survey). As an open source platform, Matryx provides a community and ecosystem for transparent and effective collaboration, reducing the duplication and fragmentation of efforts that result from closed, siloed systems. By providing Calcflow as an open source tool, Matryx lowers the barriers to entry for its users – including enthusiasts, academia and business professionals – while ensuring that code and software features remain robust.
“Solving the world’s hardest problems in silos leads to time and money wasted,” said Steve McCloskey, CEO, Matryx. “We believe that creating an open and transparent exchange of ideas will speed the rate of innovation, encourage users to collaborate with one another and ultimately result in major breakthroughs. By releasing both Calcflow and Matryx as open source software, we’re realizing our vision to provide a platform for decentralized collaboration while enabling our users to help advance the technology as their needs require.”
For more information, tutorials for Calcflow are available for viewing. Calcflow and Matryx can also be found on GitHub: https://github.com/matryx.
