About this presentation

Passonix is the software presented here, by PASS Digital Engineering. Tom Pass supplied the introduction and workshop photographs. Chapter narration was drafted from that introduction and earlier development chats at his request. It follows the widening questions behind the software, without inventing dates, personal milestones or measured workplace results. The refreshed optimiser, MSTAR assembly, thread and indexable milling, turning and Connected work recordings use the current Passonix UI. Other supporting media retain their labelled earlier editions. Its light workspace, dark navigation and joined selected edges follow the supplied Passonix application reference.

Images combine retained application screenshots with new captures from the running native Qt workspaces. Recordings show actual native application widgets and controlled demonstration actions, not real machining time or UI-performance measurements. Captions distinguish fictional records, older views and motion-only examples where force or displacement is unavailable. Earlier branding may remain visible in authentic retained captures. No media represents live production.

Capabilities were researched against repository documentation and source, then reviewed separately. Feature availability depends on the installed edition and configuration. Manufacturing, workplace and assistant features retain their normal permissions, deployment and qualification boundaries.
