Seventy
five miles inland from the Gulf Coast on the north side of Houston
Thrustmaster of Texas, Inc. has been building marine thrusters
for over twenty years. Working out of three leased buildings
in the Northwoods Industrial Park the owner made a bullish move
to build the largest dedicated thruster factory in the world.
-
- Watson Enterprises (aka MarineImaging.com)
is about more than conceptual imaging. It is about bringing ideas
to life. Owner/Operator Rob Watson was selected as the Project
Manager for construction of this $15m factory and office complex.

 WHAT
WE DO AT MARINEIMAGING.COM
-
- 1. Simply put, we provide CAD level vessel
and marine product concept modeling and animation in 3D.
-
- 2. We work directly with our clients using
anything from notes on paper napkins to CAD drawings and solid
models to develop and work out ideas.
-
- 3. We then develop that work into a format
such as print, web, and videos up to full screen DVD videos for
presentations, marketing, and trade shows. And if desired, we
can also manage the project.
-
- Owner/operator Rob Watson has hands-on
experience working in the field as a Boarding Officer for the
U.S. Coast Guard, Fire Fighting and Law Enforcement, and public
safety EMS. He also has experience in Machining and Fabrication,
Machine Integration and Manufacturing Engineering, University
Research, and Marketing and Training..., and he brings
that kind of experience to the table as we continue to advance
with technology to make it even better, faster, and less expensive.
-
- The images and files on our web site are
not from "stock" photos or renderings. It is a chronological
history of what we do for the real world - in real time. MarineImaging.com
is a multi-mission, multi-tasking, customer focused entrepreneurship
seeking contract work applicable to the real-world of the marine
industry design and imaging.

-
| CUSTOM DESIGN AND CONCEPT VISUALIZATION |
-
We have provided
hands-on personalized services toward the construction of steel
and aluminum vessels and products for the marine industry as
well as products that go on onto or into them.
-
- Our "study plans" can bypass
paper sketching and go directly into CAD level 3D to quickly
review and study spatial requirements, test the ideas, then communicate
3D images back to the client, rearrange deck plans and design
on the fly, and then communicate what it means back to the engineer
in CAD level drawings once the client is satisfied. We've even
included laser scanning into the process to look at pre and post
planning techniques.
-
- Throughout the process of conceptual design
we can post updated images into your own personal folder for
you to access at your convenience from anywhere in the world
with Internet access. No having to wait for us to send them or
have them get bogged down by over-full mail boxes or security
software.
-
- Naval Architects and Marine Engineers
are essential. No doubt about it! However, there are many options
to explore in custom design. So, involving the professional
engineer before you are ready for actual engineering might lead
you down a path for which you are not ready at that time.
-
- We can work directly with you to hammer
out your ideas..., but, with the understanding that our work
will eventually be delivered to the PE for design and construction.
The more visually and dimensionally accurate information we can
provide, the more likely you are to be satisfied with the long
term results.

| ARE YOU GETTING READY FOR A MARINE TRADE SHOW? |
-
The computer is a powerful. In
addition to designing a working vessel, a manufacturing machine,
or marine products we can also produce a video (or use one you've
already had produced), incorporate just about any digital imaging
data you need for marketing or training, and then author and
burn a master CD or DVD for distribution. WE are about the entire
process of MarineImaging.
-
- Don't get caught
in a time crunch. Lead times are important and this is
a first come, first serve business.
-
Need
a marketing or training video to run on your clients computers?
Mix interviews, animated walk-throughs, product images, voice-overs,
and music backgrounds to make it look like you spent millions...,
for a fraction of the cost. (See
our Examples Page to review several video options.)
-
- Take a hundred or so CD's or DVD's with
you to hand out to potential clients. Interactive functions can
lead potential clients directly from specific points on our CD
to pages on your web site* in seconds!
-
- If you don't currently have a video we
can produce it for you for Internet delivery, produce it as a
DVD, or burn it in MPEG format on the CD with interactive pages
so your clients can watch it at higher quality than most Internet
connection speeds can deliver.
- (* Client must be connected
to the Internet and the URL must remain the same after distribution
of the CD.)

| MARINE AND OTHER OEM INDUSTRIES |
-
As a value added service to our customers
we are developing a production library of
dimensionally accurate OEM machines, equipment, and components
offered by and used in support of vessel design and the marine
industry as a whole, including reduction gears, HVAC, electrical
panels, engines, pumps, framing, marine hardware, tools, assets,
and outside equipment such as gantry cranes, davits, hoists,
and deck gear.
-
- We would like to install your product
into our library using your 3D CAD files. If do not have them
converted, let's talk about how to get the drawings prepared
for distribution from a web based library.
-
- See our Examples page - 3D CAD Accurate
Objects and Imaging Solutions to better understand what we
are talking about. If you don't see a visual representation of
your product, then we'd sure like to talk to you.
-
- Protection of your proprietary
designs is our utmost concern so bring your Confidentiality Agreement,
or we'll bring ours.

- ThermoProbe, Inc.
had the ability to produce their own in-house CD along with their
web site and all the graphics and content. What they didn't have
was the ability to produce the video they wanted.
-
- Working with their in-house graphics team
we used content they had already generated for their web site,
the music they selected, and their basic script to produce the
video at MPEG-1 and then sent it to them on a CD.
- They took the video, compressed it to
WMV, embedded it into a web page and posted it on their web site.
Now, the billfold CD links to their web site and their web site
contains the video we did.
-
- Allow us to work with your in-house design
group to assemble what you need for marketing or training.
