What Is Inventor?
Inventor is a computer-aided design (CAD). In inventor you can make 2D sketches into 3D models that can eventually be printed on a 3D printer. Inventor has a variety of options for creating models such as part files and assembly files.
Conclusion
During the Inventor unit, I refreshed my skills on drawing and using inventor. I have used inventor before but it was nice to relearn it. Something that was new was using the MakerBot software. Using the step by step, it was not too challenging. Another thing that was new to me was using the 3D printer. It was very cool to see something I sketched turn into a real object in just a few classes. Overall I really liked this unit.
