Democratising Computational Design via Cloud Based Applications

Presentation Abstract

While computational designers have always created powerful and sophisticated software, the reach of their work often couldn’t exceed that of their modeling tool of choice. We’ll show a novel way to build and deploy web applications, including complex user interfaces and interactions with 3d geometry and data visualization with nothing but Grasshopper. As part of ShapeDiver’s presentation, Age Van Boxem will present Orthosolid, a platform powered by ShapeDiver that enables clinicians to design and order custom 3D-printed orthoses through an intuitive digital interface. He will explore how computational design and UX come together to simplify complex and outdated workflows, making advanced customization accessible within clinical practice and without engineering expertise.
