Rhino (Rhinoceros 3D) is a commercial 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software application developed by Robert McNeel & Associates. It’s known for its freeform surface modeling capabilities and its use of NURBS (Non-uniform rational B-spline) geometry, which allows for precise and accurate representation of curves and surfaces. Rhino is used across various industries, including architecture, engineering, manufacturing, and design.
Industries that Use Rhino:
Architecture:
Rhino is widely used by architects for creating freeform designs, parametric models, and visualizing building designs.
Engineering:
Engineers utilize Rhino for creating 3D models of mechanical parts, structures, and other complex components.
Manufacturing:
Manufacturers use Rhino for designing prototypes, creating manufacturing drawings, and exporting models to CNC machines.
Product Design:
Product designers rely on Rhino for creating detailed models of products, from consumer goods to industrial equipment.
