Updates?

Just wondering if there are any improvements, stabilization, or features to look forward to. I see hints of topographical optimization on the Intact Solutions web page. Is that still in the works?Is that a screen shot of Scan-and-Solve?

I'm not really interested in Cloud based solutions as I paid good money to have a solution working directly within Rhino.

Thanks and happy 2020.

    Hello Aaron,

    We have many exciting developments happening behind the scenes.  Leveraging DARPA-funded research, we are greatly increasing speed and adding new types of physics.  This development involves a complete rewrite of the core simulation code (dubbed Intact.Simulation).

    While we're working on a new version for Rhino, what capabilities do you use in Scan&Solve Pro?  What if there was a Grasshopper plug-in, would that be useful?

    P.S.  The topology optimization you see on our webpages is from Desktop Metal's Live Parts.  It uses our simulation API along with biology-inspired techniques to guide the optimization process.  Here's a collection of videos that highlight its features and operation:

      Has there been any more progress since march on an update?  Rewriting the core code sounds like it might be a multi-year endeavor, but I'm sure we'd love to hear about any progress or interim enhancements and especially stability improvements.
