Hi, I am a computer science student in my final year, and preparing myself for my graduation project (GP).
Please check this video:
I am planning to develop a system that pretty much provide the same functionalities and features, the aim is to create a tool that allows the engineers to sketch a mechanical system as they would on paper, and then allow them to interact with the design as a mechanical system for example by seeing a simulation of the drawing.
Some Advantages:
- An interface gives you the look and feel of paper and pen (instead of menus in CAD systems), helps you to be more creative and much easier in designing (Free environment)
- Use computers in Early Design
- Able to identify the mechanical parts in the user=92s drawing
- The user is able to sketch directly into the system that interprets his/her design, and would be able to simulate the sketch at any point in the design process and go right back to sketching
I am still in the searching and investigation stage, and because I do not have almost any knowledge/background about mechanical stuff, here I am asking for feedback(s) and advices.
- Is this project will be useful for mechanical engineerings (it will be used to design kind of simple mechanical systems)?
- What additional features/parts I could add?
- Any comments/advices, will be most welcome
I deeply value the time you put to read this long post. Kind regards, Magdy
