Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have developed software that will let engineers design new products by simply sketching their ideas on a tablet computer.

The software, dubbed SketchCAD, is a digital pen-based computer system that can be used to design 3D products for a variety of industry sectors.
"The idea is to empower engineers and designers with tools that are already familiar to them and are the most natural for the task," said Levent Burak Kara, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at Carnegie Mellon.
"Right now, our technology is being adopted by Honda designers for designing new cars in fast and cost-effective ways," said co researcher Kenji Shimada, the Theodore Ahrens Professor of Engineering at Carnegie Mellon.
