M IT engineers are developing an AI model that can operate CAD software the same way a human designer does. The system takes ...

Jay Shah is a Lead Hardware Engineer at Caldo, specializing in robotics, automation and sustainable food technology.

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the go-to method for designing most of today's physical products. Engineers use CAD to turn 2D sketches into 3D models that they can then test and refine before sending ...

The key to quick, efficient CAD modeling is to have a solid library of CAD blocks - pre-prepared sets of common objects and details that you can simply drop into your drawing as and when they are ...

Software is eating another part of the world. (Or at least the next generation of software is eating the older 1970s-era kind.) Sunglass, which is coming out of beta today at TechCrunch Disrupt New ...

Considering all of the projects the Raspberry Pi is used for now, the fact that it was originally envisioned to be an educational tool is sometimes forgotten. One of the tools commonly available with ...

Migrating from 2D to 3D CAD takes time but the payback is worth it. 3D CAD models provide a wide array of information about a product. The transition from 2D CAD to 3D CAD is not just another software ...

Use AutoCAD's "Extrude" and "Revolve" commands to turn 2-D designs into 3-D models. "Extrude" is how 3-D modelers to refer to the technique of stretching a 2-D shape into 3-D space. AutoCAD performs ...

Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md. — An integral part of preparing and protecting Soldiers is analyzing Soldier equipment, weapons and vehicles. Vulnerability and Lethality, or V/L, modeling helps provide a ...

Recognizing the limits of traditional CAD for creating and controlling highly complex designs, a new effort has been launched to combine 3D modeling, simulation, and manufacturing processes into one ...
