AR-CAD
Goal
- Find a solution that allows small teams to compete with larger players in creating engineering add-ins for high-tech CAD environments. This solution must be physics-based and allow users to visualize tolerances and the impact of physical forces.
Challenge
The technology must:
- Maximize the abilities of a small team through increased programming productivity.
- Integrate well within popular CAD programs such as AutoCAD, Inventor, Solidworks, Alibre and SpaceClaim.
- Be easy to understand.
- Facilitate software debugging.
Results With Cincom® VisualWorks®
- Cincom VisualWorks allows companies to stay on equal footing with competitors that rely on more complex programming languages as the foundation for their CAD motion simulators.
- Its clean syntax and pure object-oriented paradigm allow programmers to convert the problem domain into working code more easily and faithfully.
- The debugger and inspectors encourage fearless exploration of the code to fix programming problems.
