Project Falcon started out as an add-on for Alias software, and was then made available as a stand-alone program. It was then rolled out as add-ons for AutoCAD, Inventor, and Revit. The same can be said for the videos associated with the technology. There's a Promo and Overview video for each incarnation of the technology. Check them out.

Though the stand-alone version is useful, what intrigues me about this technology is its ability to run inside design applications. Wouldn't it be cool if Project Falcon was "always on" running in a separate thread so that its operation did not impact your traditional use of our design applications? For example, imagine if AutoCAD had model space, paper space (multiple layouts), and a new analysis space (where Project Falcon was available anytime you viewed that tab). Any changes made in model space would automatically be reflected in the analysis space. Is that a good idea or not? You can provide your answer in a variety of ways.
According to the Wall Street Journal, there is an increase in the demand for [Project] Falconry (article). I couldn't agree more.
Technology in multiple delivery vehicles is alive in the lab.
