Sustainable Minds, Autodesk Develop Environmental Tools For Designers
Why wait until you’re trying to construct a product before figuring out the environmental impact of what’s going into it? Why indeed? That’s the motivation behind a new development partnership between Sustainable Minds and Autodesk. The goal is to provide industrial designers and engineers the knowledge to understand the environmental impacts of a new product. An on-demand software and information suite will help designers estimate a product’s life cycle impact. This life cycle assessment software will complement Autodesk product for three-dimensional digital prototyping, Autodesk Inventor...
