Description

Hektar is an innovative cloud-based software designed for generative design, specifically aimed at assisting with early-stage urban planning, pre-design, and schematic design tasks. Created by Parametric, it empowers architects and urban planners to improve their projects by effectively managing the complexities involved in critical design phases. By leveraging evolutionary algorithms and artificial generative intelligence, the platform transforms user inputs from broad concepts into detailed, viable designs and accurate estimates. Hektar’s suite of tools incorporates both geometrical and geographical intelligence, enabling users to specify essential features like access points, exclusions for construction, and custom street layouts. Furthermore, it offers numerical controls, allowing for precise adjustments related to project elements such as building depth, greenery integration, and parking arrangements. The software begins processing intricate information about lighting and sun exposure early in the geometry pipeline, leading to the creation of informed design proposals that can adapt to various scenarios. In this way, Hektar not only enhances the design process but also fosters collaboration among multiple stakeholders involved in urban development projects.

Description

Mechanica, nanoCAD's 3D mechanical design and 2D drafting module, is a powerful tool for both. It is based upon an advanced parametric engine that works with a large collection of standard parts. It allows users to quickly develop high-quality mechanical engineering drawing and project documentation. The nanoCAD platform offers a complete set of tools for designing and editing 2D/3D 3D objects. It provides multiple drawing and editing options for most geometrical elements. The nanoCAD platform provides the foundation for a more powerful and bespoke CAD system. Mechanica is a platform that extends nanoCAD with a range of mechanical drawing and engineering calculations utilities, along with a vast collection of standard and user defined parts. The synergy accelerates the parametric drafting. Advanced tools for designing shafts, pipelines and other structures. Drawing projections with engineering standards.
