SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COLLABORATIVE SHAPE DESIGN

摘要

One embodiment of the present invention provides a computer-implemented method for collaborative shape design in a web-based system having a client (104) and a server (106). In this embodiment, the method includes obtaining shape information of shape on the client (502) via an user interface, sending the shape information from the client to the server (504), generating a three-dimensional representation of the shape on the server using the shape information (506), sending the three-dimensional representation of the shape to the client (508), and displaying the three-dimensional representation of the shape on the client (510). In one embodiment, the method further includes modifying the three-dimensional representation of the shape on the client (706), and sending the modified three-dimensional representation of the shape to the server (708).
