3D CAD & other computer-aided tech (CAx)
This is the place to be if you love computer graphics. We do 2D/3D modeling, 3D printing, solid geometry, design, and more. Depending on the project, you have the opportunity to work with C/C++, Python, OpenGL, OpenCL, Qt, Javascript, and more... Help us develop open source computer-aided technologies (CAx)!
We operates as an umbrella organization with several CAx communities including:
- - OpenSCAD is a solid 3D modeler with a rich syntax for programmable geometry.
- - LibreCAD is a 2D modeling system specializing in blueprint-style drawings and draftings.
- - IfcOpenShell is a library for working with standard IFC building model data.
- - BRL-CAD is a solid modeling suite with conversion and advanced solid ray tracing features.
- - Manifold is a solid geometry mesh processing library.
We want to select at least one student for each, so feel free to ask us where to start.
