Grasshopper - algorithmic modeling for Rhino2

thingiverse

Human Algorithmic modeling software for Rhino. It uses grasshopper as an add-in and enables architects to perform algorithms using the graphical language. Grasshopper has become a major tool for digital architecture since its launch, allowing users to automate complex geometric and design operations on models in Rhino. Key features of this software include live graph updates as inputs are altered and integration with other Rhino commands, providing architects and designers an intuitive and visual way to explore mathematical equations. This technology uses the concept of "blocks," which act as Lego bricks and can be dragged-and-dropped together within Grasshopper's graphical environment. In a traditional approach, designers write script or programming languages such as Visual Basic for Application, in order to achieve some geometric calculations or automation. But the unique value proposition of grasshopper lies in how easy it is to manipulate complex mathematical expressions using drag-and-drop interface blocks - allowing users to model complex relationships and dependencies with a mere drag and drop operation.
