  2. 1. Converting CAD Drawings to Product Models

    Author : Robert Noack; KTH; []
    Keywords : Shape recognition; shape interpretation; product models;

    Abstract : The fundamental aim of this study is to examine whether itis possible to automatically convert vector-based drawings toproduct models. The reason fordoing this is that the newobject-based systems cannot make use of the information storedin CAD drawings, which limits the usability of thesesystems. READ MORE
