Our climate is changing. Every year, we see communities devastated by wildfires, floods, and earthquakes, forcing people to abandon their homes and lives at a moment's notice. The very idea of a permanent, safe "home" is under threat.

But what if we reimagined what a home could be?

Introducing the AEROHOME Concept

Imagine a future where your home isn't just a static structure, but a modular, intelligent living pod. These pods dock into a central superstructure, creating a vibrant vertical community. They contain everything you need for the modern triad of a healthy life: to live, work, and play.

When disaster strikes, you don't evacuate from your home—you evacuate with it. A heavy-duty transportation drone attaches to your pod, airlifting you and your personal space to safety, preserving not just your life, but your home and belongings. This is the future of resilient, mobile living.

From Vision to Virtual Reality: Why We Need 3DEXPERIENCE Works

An idea this revolutionary cannot be designed with simple lines and boxes. Turning the AEROHOME concept into an engineered reality presents immense design challenges that demand sophisticated tools. This is precisely why we need the power of SolidWorks and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

• Complex Geometric Forms: The honeycomb structure of the tower and the organic shape of the pods are crucial for structural integrity, aerodynamics, and spatial efficiency. We need advanced surface and parametric modeling tools to design, test, and perfect these non-uniform, tessellated shapes that are both beautiful and functional.
• Intricate Mechanical Systems: The docking and locking mechanisms connecting the pod to the tower and the drone are mission-critical. These are complex assemblies requiring precise engineering, tolerance analysis, and kinematic simulations to ensure a flawless and secure transition from a stationary home to an airborne vehicle.
• Advanced Simulation and Validation: Before a single prototype is built, we must know: Can it fly safely? How will it handle wind shear? Is the frame strong enough to support itself during flight? Using the integrated simulation tools within the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, we can run Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on the pod’s structure and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to optimize its aerodynamic profile.
• A Unified Platform for Innovation: This project isn't just about design; it's about managing a complex ecosystem of data, from initial sketches to simulation results and prototyping. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides the collaborative, cloud-based environment we need to innovate efficiently.

To build the future, we need the tools of the future. The 3DEXPERIENCE Works for Startups program is the catalyst we need to move the AEROHOME project from a compelling concept to a world-changing reality. We're ready to design a more resilient world, and we believe your platform is the key to unlocking it.
