Week02-Computer-Aided Design
This week’s Fab Academy assignment is divided into four parts.
- 2D Design
- 3D Design
- Rendering
- Source files
During this week, I will use the following software to complete my possible final project.
1. 2D Design
I will create a cloud in 2D software to use on the shell of my final project, which is a small weather station.
1.1 EasyDiffusion
This is an AI drawing software that I deployed and ran locally. It can create a drawing by simply providing an adjective.(It seems like today AI is not in a great mood; even the cloud is crying.)
1.2 AutoCAD 2024
I used the SPL command to draw a cloud pattern.
1.2 sketchup
Since SketchUp can directly import CAD’s DWG format files, I imported the cloud pattern into CAD to create my final project.
1.3 Tinkercad
This is also Autodesk software, but it is free. During the usage, I found it not very user-friendly for me; it seems more suitable for children.
