This course is fully online and offered through a combination of regularly scheduled sessions during the listed course hours, as well as asynchronous material that may include prerecorded lectures and media, and interactive discussions. Demo versions of this software, both Macintosh and PC platforms, are available for the duration of the course at no cost. Students must install McNeel's Rhino software on their computers. NOTE: Access to the Visible Futures Lab is not available for this course. Through a series of lectures and tutorials, students will gain a firm command of these fundamental tools and be able to translate their ideas into computer models, physical prototypes and products. This course will introduce and explore many of the common tools used in Rhino, with an emphasis on best practices.

Rhino provides all the tools needed to accurately model and document your designs for CAD drawings, renderings and rapid prototyping manufacturing processes. It generates great photorealistic rendering and makes animation or illustrations.Rhino is a cutting-edge software program used in architecture and engineering, as well as product and jewelry design industries for 3D modeling objects using NURBS surfaces. It particularly adapted to industrial design. Models created with Rhino 3D are accurate and usable for any manufacturing process and especially additive manufacturing.

It provides deep analysis and visualization features. This software can be used for many different applications. This program is not only useful for 3D creation s but also uses the 2D feature. It is developed for Microsoft Windows and Mac operating systems. It allows for overcoming compatibility barriers between software packages during the design process. Based on NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational Basis Splines) geometry. which allows you to create unimaginable shapes with great precision and detailing. It is commonly used for architecture, prototyping, engineering, jewelry and industrial, graphic, CAD / CAM, reverse engineering, product design, as well as multimedia design, and naval and automotive design. Rhinoceros 3D also known as ‘Rhino’ or ‘Rhino 3D’ is computer-aided design software.
