DRFT V44 — Rapid Design and Prototyping
This course introduces the applications of technology and tools for creating three-dimensional physical models from 3D CAD (computer assisted drafting) files and other 3D data. Rapid prototyping and model making technologies are covered that accelerate the design process, allowing the student designers to shorten the design cycle time, update the product development process, and improve communication between the design focus groups, engineering, marketing, and manufacturing.
