Case Study: Joby accelerates aircraft design cycles with Luminary Cloud

Joby - Customer Case Study

Joby, an air taxi developer, faced challenges in efficiently performing aerodynamic simulations for rapid aircraft design iteration. Their previous solution was slow, hindering the rapid design cycles needed to optimize their product. They turned to Luminary Cloud and its simulation capabilities to drastically improve this workflow.

Luminary Cloud implemented a solution that streamlined the entire tool chain, from importing geometry to generating results. This provided Joby with a 10x increase in engineer productivity. The time to generate a mesh was reduced from 1.5 hours to just 5 minutes, and the total time from CAD to results was slashed from 3 hours to 20 minutes, enabling the company to quickly validate design ideas and build a better product.
