  • Computational design method and interface
    Patent number: 9817639
    Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, computer program product, and computer readable storage medium provide the ability to define an object in a parametric modeling application. Geometric parametric objects are authored and organized into a family definition. Via a user interface, enhanced computational logic is defined. The logic is compiled into the family definition such that the enhanced computational logic is embedded at an object level of the one or more geometric parametric objects. Upon a building information model requiring a regeneration operation, the compiled enhanced computational logic is automatically executed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 29, 2014
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2017
    Assignee: Autodesk, Inc.
    Inventors: Matthew David Jezyk, Lev Lipkin, Stephen J. Elliott, Peter Benjamin Boyer
