What is Rhinoceros 3D?
Rhino3D is a powerful 3d modeler for many phases of ship design and fabrication.
Rhino3D uses accurate NURBS surfaces to help model many parts of a vessel.
Rhino3D’s flexibility lets you create your design using a number of workflows, not locking you into a predefined approach so that it may be used for 2D schematic design work to complex fabrication details.
What can you do with Rhino 3D?
Model Your Design
Rhino3D’s intuitive surface modeling engine lets you model the most complex surfaces accurately. Rhino3D’s unique ability to join surfaces into solids is key to surface modeling flexibility with solid manufacturing flexibility
