CAD software for anyone interested in 2D and 3D modeling
About VisualCAD
VisualCAD with its modern user interface, makes creation of 2D and 3D curves as well as 3D surfaces, solids and meshes easy and efficient. With a complete geometry creation and manipulation tool-set and fast shaded graphics and rendering, VisualCAD is a perfect system for first time CAD users and/or educational users. It includes numerous file importing capabilities such as DXF/DWG, IGES, STEP and other file formats making it also an ideal companion system for your mainline CAD system.

Eyeshot
Eyeshot is a CAD control based on the Microsoft NET Framework. It allows developers to add CAD functionalities to WinForms and WPF applications in a snap. Eyeshot provides tools for building geometry from scratch, for analyzing it with finite element method and to generate toolpaths on it. Geometry can also be imported or exported using CAD exchange file formats. Combine multiple data sources, input devices and CAD entity types as has never been possible before. Import your dataset from file or from Visual Studio project resources or from database. Allow end-users to interact using keyboard, mouse, 3D mouse or fingers. Select between Mesh, Solid and Nurbs surface modeling technologies to unleash your creativity. Eyeshot is the only 100% NET CAD component on the market. With 60+ source code samples (in both C# and VB NET and for both WinForms and WPF platforms) it’s also the easiest to learn.

Altair SimSolid
By performing structural analyses on fully featured CAD assemblies within minutes, SimSolid is the game-changing simulation technology for designers, engineers, and analysts. It eliminates geometry preparation and meshing: the two most time-consuming, expertise-extensive and error-prone tasks performed in a conventional structural simulation.
Multiple design scenarios can be simulated quickly under real-life conditions. Early CAD models, in any common format, can be used. SimSolid tolerance of imprecise geometry means that, unlike CAD-embedded simulation tools, there is no need to simplify complex geometries before analyzing designs.
SimSolid supports all typical connections (bolt/nut, bonded, welds, rivets, sliding) and analysis of linear static, modal, thermal properties, along with more complex coupled, nonlinear, transient dynamic effects.

picoCAD
picoCAD is a program to build and texture low-poly 3D models. Where many programs for modeling and texturing are bloated and overly complicated, picoCAD aims to make it fun, easy, and accessible by focusing on the bare essentials. It is built on the PICO-8 platform and comes rich with constraints. Experiment to find your own workflow and anything is possible. picoCAD is a standalone application and you don't need PICO-8 to run it. Features include a streamlined and easy-to-use editor, the ability to place and modify meshes to create amazing things, live manipulation of textures and UV coordinates, a unique look with picoCAD's dithered shading, rendering in wireframe, solid fill, or textured modes, and it ships with a manual that is worth reading. You can save files in an easy-to-read text format, export Twitter-friendly GIFs, and export to OBJ/MTL for import into Blender, Unity, etc. A Steam key is included with every purchase.
