LEDAS releases RhinoDirect 0.1 for history-free parametric modification of 3D geometry

LEDAS Ltd. extends the set of Driving Dimensions plug-ins for Rhinoceros. After RhinoAssembly we are working on a new plug-in called RhinoDirect.

RhinoDirect allows Rhinoceros users to assemble complex mechanisms composed of rigid and non-rigid parts. Three-dimensional shapes of non-rigid parts are adjusted automatically to satisfy the geometric constraints and driving dimensions set by the user. Moreover, RhinoDirect allows users to apply constraints and dimensions directly between the faces and edges of one part.

Please see this simple video tutorial to learn how RhinoDirect can be used for parametric modification of Rhinoceros geometry:

Find more video tutorials at Driving Dimensions Labs.

RhinoDirect 0.1 is the very preliminary version that has very few limitations. Solids can be modified if their boundaries consist of planar faces with sharp or filleted edges, round holes, and protruding cylinders. These limitations will be overcome by later beta releases; the next beta ships in February.

The version 0.1 of RhinoDirect requires Rhinoceros 4.0 SR5B and higher, and runs on 32-bit versions of Windows XP, Vista, and 7. It is available as a free download from Driving Dimensions Labs.
