A trial run requires only that the user's system and web browser support WebGL.įigure 1: A trimmed down version of the 3D Slash CAD software is available as a web service. IntroductionĪ user can gather first impressions of 3D Slash ( Figure 1) by taking it for a spin on the provider's website. I also compare the 3D Slash to Tinkercad, the predominant CAD software offered by Autodesk, Inc. In this article, I look closely at the functionality and performance of 3D Slash running on a Raspberry Pi 2 (RPi 2) outfitted with the current Raspbian "jessie" operating system. A trimmed down version with basic functionality starts directly from the web browser. The company promises that the Linux version works without problem on the Rasp Pi. The French firm 3D Slash offers a program by the same name in several versions, including one for Linux. More and more CAD software is becoming available for standard PCs or as a web application.
This state of affairs has changed considerably in the last few years. For a long time, computer-aided design (CAD) was the domain of powerful and expensive workstations.
