What Is CAD? Computer-aided design (CAD) means computers are getting used to supporting the design methods in any type of industry. By using CAD software, it is possible to build a comprehensive model by using the imagination of the user. Enabling the user to add features like length, width, height, distance, material, or color before the model is being used for a particular purpose. It was 1962, computer scientist Ivan Sutherland developed the first computer graphic application, recognized as “Sketch Pad” which allowed people to write or draw simple sketches directly on a screen with the help of a special pencil. This is the origin of all future CAD software. In the beginning, CAD was used only for research purposes, but in the 1970s, large automotive and aerospace companies started developing their software, improving its attention to other industries in the 1980s. It wasn’t till the 1990s that tools alike CATIA and AutoCAD were produced, making it possible to be used in various
