Kudan Inc. (hereinafter “Kudan”) today announced the official global launch of PRISM Cloud, the cloud-based version of its photorealistic 3D digital twin platform, Kudan PRISM (Photo-Realistic Integrated Spatial Management).

Kudan PRISM Cloud unlocks 3D data that has traditionally been confined to high-spec PCs and specialized software environments, making it accessible via web browsers through a seamless cloud platform that connects field sites, headquarters, and overseas locations.

Across industries such as infrastructure, energy, manufacturing, and construction, PRISM Cloud advances digital twin adoption from the stage of merely “creating” models to enabling organizations to continuously “use” them across the enterprise.

■ Background: Breaking Down the “Siloization” of Digital Twins

While digital twin adoption has accelerated across industrial sectors in recent years, many organizations face challenges such as:

• Large data sizes that can only be opened on high-performance machines
• Limited accessibility to specialists, preventing cross-departmental or executive sharing

As a result, valuable 3D data often remains confined to proof-of-concept (PoC) initiatives, failing to translate into company-wide operational improvement or digital transformation.

By integrating Kudan’s proprietary spatial perception technology with the latest 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) techniques, Kudan PRISM Cloud addresses these issues and provides an environment where 3D spatial data can be accessed “by anyone, from anywhere, instantly.”

■ Key Features and Value Proposition of Kudan PRISM Cloud

1. Browser-Based & Device Agnostic Access

No dedicated software installation is required. Accessible via web browser, PRISM Cloud supports PCs, tablets, and smartphones regardless of device or operating system.
Stakeholders across field sites, headquarters, overseas offices, and remote locations can reference the same 3D space and information at any time.
This accessibility transforms digital twins from tools used by a limited group of specialists into an enterprise-wide operational foundation.

2. Scalable Architecture for Phased Deployment

Designed to accommodate future growth in data volume and usage scope, PRISM Cloud enables seamless expansion from small-scale PoC projects to departmental and enterprise-wide deployment.
Its flexible scalability across sites, users, and datasets ensures sustainable, long-term digital twin utilization rather than one-time implementation.

3. Collaboration-First Design and Single Source of Truth

Photorealistic 3DGS and point cloud data are centrally managed in the cloud and shared across multiple users and locations.
Users can add annotations, notes, and linked documents directly within 3D space, as well as conduct remote reviews.
This establishes a shared “Single Source of Truth” across departments and sites—transforming 3D space from data that is merely viewed into an organizational information infrastructure.

4. Flexible Cloud Deployment Options

To meet corporate data governance and security requirements, PRISM Cloud supports public cloud environments such as AWS and Azure, as well as private cloud and customer-managed cloud configurations.
Organizations can select deployment models aligned with industry regulations, regional policies, and internal compliance standards.

5. Seamless Integration via API

PRISM Cloud is designed for interoperability with existing systems such as CMMS, ERP, and IoT platforms.
Rather than replacing existing infrastructure, it enables integration alongside current workflows, minimizing operational disruption.
This “integration-first” approach reduces adoption barriers and accelerates digital twin implementation.

6. Acceleration of Spatial AI Integration

Built on Kudan’s proprietary spatial perception technologies, PRISM Cloud supports seamless integration with customer-specific AI models.
By leveraging photorealistic 3DGS environments for inspection, simulation, and analysis, it enables meaningful 3D spatial data utilization.
As a foundation for automated analysis and AI-driven optimization, it unlocks new value in inspection and maintenance domains.
