The Future Of Design With 3D Models
SpaceX the company founded by Elon Musk, the world’s busiest rich dude and mad scientist, has just posted a video showing off the Iron Man-inspired 3D modeling setup and is exploring methods for engineers to accelerate their workflow by designing more directly in 3D.
By combining the gesture-sensing Leap Motion controller with an array of different display technologies (like the Oculus Rift VR handset, a 3D Projector, or a crazy translucent glass display and a modified version of the Siemens NX design suite, SpaceX’s engineers are able to zoom around and inspect their models without ever touching a mouse.
