To make CAD easier and faster, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) developed InstantCAD, a plug-in that simplifies the editing process, improves and optimizes CAD models. The researchers detailed the plug-in in a paper titled "Interactive Design Space Exploration and Optimization for CAD Models," which was supported by the National Science Foundation.
"It may really change the rules of the game, allowing automakers and other companies to test and improve complex designs in seconds instead of hours," the researchers explained.
The problem with CAD software is that although it is parameterized, parameters such as shape and size can be changed according to the designer's requirements, but with multiple options, it is difficult to determine the best design for the object. Even changing an attribute takes a lot of time - you have to regenerate the new design and then run a simulation, after which the designer can see the results and determine what to do next. This complexity is caused by too much design space and too many design choices.
With InstantCAD, users can improve and optimize their designs in real time. Once the object is designed in CAD software, it is sent to a cloud platform where multiple geometric evaluations and simulations are performed simultaneously. After that, the user has two options to improve and optimize the design. “Interactive Exploration†has a user interface that provides real-time feedback on how design changes affect performance; “Automatic Optimization†allows the user to tell the system to provide a design with specific features, such as being as light as possible, but capable of carrying the maximum weight at the same time. Man-machine.
According to the author of the paper, the tool is especially useful for more complex designs such as cars, airplanes, and robots. “Our system not only saves you the time to change your design, it can also greatly improve the quality of the product itself. The more complex your design, the more important this tool is,†the researchers said. “This system makes it easier for users. Custom objects to meet their specific needs. We hope to pave the way for personalized manufacturing and DIY design."
