Computer aided design (CAD) systems have become today the basic tools used to design
and develop products in the industry. In current CAD software most of the editing commands …

Interactions with high volume complex three-dimensional data using traditional two-
dimensional computer interfaces have, historically, been inefficient and restrictive. However …

Computer Aided Design (CAD) has been crucial to the engineering design process since
the 1960s due to the ability to create 2D and 3D design representations and easily …

Current virtual reality (VR) systems provide an enormous potential for enhancing the
visualization of 3D-design drafts. Based on new navigation techniques the designer is able …

Traditional input-output interfaces, like mouse, keyboard and monitor are not suitable for an
efficient interaction between user and software in CAD applications. On the other hand …

The interaction metaphor, based on mouse, monitor and keyboard, presents evident limits in
the engineering design review activities, when real and virtual models must be explored and …

Conventional computer aided design (CAD) systems have not provided enough support for
conceptual design partly due to the lack of natural and intuitive human–computer interaction …

Newrequirements are needed by industry for computer aided design (CAD) data. Some
techniques of CAD data management and the computer power unit capabilities enable an …

The current application of virtual reality (VR) systems in the design process is limited mostly
to design review. The reason for this limitation is the different data formats used for CAD and …

The use of virtual reality (VR) techniques in industry is subject to very high expectations, as
VR has emerged as a popular technology for computer-human interfaces in order to master …
