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

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the go-to method for designing most of today's physical products. Engineers use CAD to turn 2D ...

A new computational approach, built on data-driven techniques, is making it possible to turn simple 2D sketch into a realistic 3D shape, with little or no user input necessary. A new computational ...

A machine learning tool developed by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute (RI) could potentially allow beginner and professional designers to create 3D virtual models of ...

We present a system for 3D modeling of free-form surfaces from 2D sketches. Our system frees users to create 2D sketches from arbitrary angles using their preferred tool, which may include pencil and ...

If you’ve ever spent hours in Blender painstakingly sculpting 3D models, you know how tedious it can be to get every vertex, edge, and texture just right. That’s exactly why I was curious to try Tripo ...

Are you fond of drawing some random doodles? Have you ever imagined some magic tricks that would transform your boring 2D picture into a realistic 3D model? Well then, turning a 2D shape into a 3D ...

Whether you are looking for the right software to fuel your latest design project or picking the best engineering program for a company or class, here’s the best 3D modeling software — and what makes ...
