Learning about CAD
Computer-aided design or CAD is defined as the use of computer technology for the design of objects, whether real or virtual. It often involves more than just the basic shapes. Its output must also convey symbolic information such as materials, processes, dimensions, and tolerance, according to application-specific conventions.
CAD can be utilised to design curves and figures in two-dimensional or 2D space. It can also be applied on the curves, surfaces, and solids in three-dimensional or 3D objects. It is also considered an important industrial art extensively employed in many applications. This includes the automotive, shipbuilding, and aerospace industries, as well as industrial and architectural design, and prosthetics.
In the world of moviemaking, computer-aided design produces computer animation for special effects in movies, advertising and technical manuals. Due to its enormous economic importance, CAD has been a major driving force for research in the fields of computational geometry, computer graphics, and discrete differential geometry.
