Abstract

With recent advancements in Virtual reality (VR), 3D design in VR has gained significant interest from both academia and industries. However, the development of these VR CAD tools is either skewed towards the creative industry or simply mimicking conventional CAD. This paper presents three different tools, analyzes them, and compares their capabilities over various performance parameters. The paper finally suggests where these tools can be used in the design process and some critical pathways for developing VR-based CAD modeling software for practical use in the engineering design industry.
