> Given an image or a 3D mesh, SGS-1 can generate CAD B-Rep parts in STEP format. Unlike all other existing generative models, SGS-1 outputs are accurate and can be edited easily in traditional CAD software
This is a game changer, all the models before that output meshes were a toy at best. Super excited to see where they can take this.
I wander if the next step is for a step -> proprietary format (SolidWork, NX etc) model that can infer constraints.
There are so many hobbyist 3D printing things I’d like to do around my abode by taking some existing piece and tweaking it. Creating a model for a one off part is pretty tedious though.
I think the bar is even lower than that: generating sane STEP geometry from STL files generated by other CAD software is already a huge win. Autodesk Fusion pretends to be able to do that, but it only works for easy demos.
