 Rhinoceros 3D

 Rhinoceros (typically abbreviated Rhino, or Rhino3D) is a commercial 3D

computer graphics and computer-aided design (CAD) application software
developed by Robert McNeel & Associates, an American, privately held,
employee-owned company founded in 1980. Rhinoceros geometry is based on the
NURBS mathematical model, which focuses on producing mathematically precise
representation of curves and freeform surfaces in computer graphics (as opposed
to polygon mesh-based applications).

 Rhinoceros is used in processes of computer-aided design (CAD), computer-

aided manufacturing (CAM), rapid prototyping, 3D printing and reverse
engineering in industries including architecture, industrial design (e.g. automotive
design, watercraft design), product design (e.g. jewelry design) as well as for
multimedia and graphic design.

 Grasshopper a plugin for the Rhinoceros 3D modeling package—is a graphical

algorithm editor that takes advantage of Rhino's existing tools. Grasshopper offers
new ways to expand and control the 3D design and modeling processes, including
automating repetitive processes; generating geometry through mathematical
functions; quickly making changes to complex models; and creating complex
forms through repetitions of simple geometry. Grasshopper requires no
programming or scripting knowledge, but still allows designers a high degree of
flexibility in creating both simple and complex forms.

 About Trainer: He has been working for Rhino for the past seven years, giving
Grasshopper3D workshops to prestigious design and engineering companies. He
gave numerous talks including the TEDx, 3DPrintShow, Shape to Fabrication and
the Develop3D Conferences.

 About Training Program: This training will include the blow courses
