Schedule 1
By use of the Services provided by Treble under the License Agreement the Customer is granted access to Treble’s Platform. All interaction with the Platform requires the Customer to be authenticated against the Platform. The Customer can operate the Platform either via web interface or programmatically using the software packages or modules provided by the Treble SDK. The Customer can engage with the Platform by uploading and downloading data to and from the Platform. This data encompasses various forms, such as 3D models, material specifications, sound source specifications, simulation settings specifications, or other data types. The 3D models undergo a transformation into mesh-based representations tailored for simulations when combined with the data sets. This amalgamation empowers the Customer to apply the numerical model ingrained within the Platform for the purpose of conducting acoustic simulations. These simulations are designed to forecast the propagation of sound waves within the 3D models. The results of the simulations, along with related data, are securely stored within the Platform. Treble will provide fee-based services to Customer as requested.
