Autodesk Alias Design
is an industrial design software for creative design processes that require advanced sketching, modeling, and visualization to bring ideas to reality.
Autodesk® Alias® Design helps create a system for innovation with tools for ideation, concept development, and refinement. These stages are part of visualization and communication, helping to create repeatable efficient design processes. Autodesk Alias Design helps maintain design intent while also developing in a realistic, accurate method that allows for better collaboration with engineering. The results of these benefits are consistent, efficient delivery of quality designs.
Autodesk Alias Design provides designers the tools to explore their concepts and find solutions to design challenges with sketching, illustration and modeling. Learning is made easier by tools that function like their real-life counterparts. Modeling is made more efficient with tools such as dynamic shape modeling, surface creation, 3D sculpting, and surface fillet capabilities, among several other modeling options.
Benefits:
-
Advanced 2D and 3D sketching allows designers to unleash creativity
- Dynamic shape modeling tools (bend, twist, conform, lattice rig)
- Model Evaluation of surfaces, Including Patch Boundary, Curvature and Radii Analysis
- Move easily between physical and digital models with import of 3D scanner data
- Exchange data with software packages such as Pro/ENGINEER®, PTC Granite®, and Daussault Systemes SolidWorks®.

markers, erasers, and special texture, and effects brushes. The integrated 2D/3D environment enables product designers to create sketches at real-world scale and draw over imported 3D CAD data to evaluate design feasibility. This also helps capture stylistic ideas and communicate color alternatives quickly and easily. With its tight integration with Autodesk® Inventor®, Autodesk® Alias® Design allows easy conversion to digital prototypes and helps ensure technical feasibility from an early stage. Greater collaboration between design and engineering leads to products that meet their initial design intent.

Dynamic Shape Modeling Tools
Dynamic shape modeling tools (bend, twist, conform, lattice rig) make it easy to create striking, original forms.

Dynamic shape modeling tools (bend, twist, conform, lattice rig) make it easy to create striking, original forms.
Easily edit shapes at any stage
of the design process, allowing for greater experimentation at all stages. Flexible curve-based and direct modeling techniques make it easy to get exactly the shape you want. Without the direct modeling capabilities in Alias, making changes later in the design process can be nearly impossible. In tools that use parametric modeling, features are related in a history. While this has many benefits, it is not always the best way to work. Alias provides designers with an environment that does not limit creativity.

on surface quality. Alias industrial design software helps you create such high-quality, Class-A surfaces that engineering teams don’t need to re-create them. This capability helps ensure that your surfaces are meeting your aesthetic demands and technical surfacing requirements for manufacturing. Alias helps you fine-tune your models with analysis tools that provide instant numerical and visual feedback to quickly verify surface quality and feasibility.
Diagnostic Shaders include color, random colors for patch layout, curvature evaluation, iso angle (not available in Alias Design), zebra stripes, draft angle, deviation map and user defined texture.

Reliable Date Exchange
Exchange digital design data with engineering teams using fast, high-quality CAD translators for industry-standard data formats such as DXF, IGES, and STEP.
Reliable Data Exchange
Exchange digital design data with engineering teams using fast, high-quality CAD translators for industry-standard data formats such as DXF, IGES, and STEP.
You can also integrate Alias software into your development pipeline with Autodesk DirectConnect data translators, offering bidirectional sharing with CAD software packages such as CATIA®, NX®, PTC® Granite® based systems (includes Pro/ENGINEER® and Creo®), JT®, EDF® (ICEM® format, new for 2013) and SolidWorks® software.
Move easily between physical and digital models with easy importing of 3D scanner data. Autodesk Alias lets you easily incorporate changes to a physical model into your digital model. Quickly extract feature information from scan data with specialized tools and spend less time creating and updating surface models. Scanner data can also be used to visualize and reverse-engineer.

Visualization and Communication
Express the emotional character of your design and communicate your design intent to customers and team members.

Photorealistic Renderings
Generate photo-realistic renderings for print, video, animations, or interactive presentations. By using high dynamic range imaging (HDRI) as the light source for interactive product visualization and rendering, Alias provides beautiful high-resolution imagery. Images could include wireframes, canvas planes, or fully shaded models that can be used to create turntables or 360-degree interactive QuickTime® VR files.
Real-Time Visualization
Autodesk Alias software reduces the need for time-consuming renderings by providing immediate visual feedback. Instantly save high-resolution images of any modeling window without running a full software rendering. Use shading models to increase realism and to evaluate surfaces and design forms. The software supports material color, texture, glow, incandescence, bump, and displacement.
Built-in Environments and Lighting
Tell the story of your product design in context with real-time, interactive 3D product visualizations. Render shading based on an omnidirectional light source, take advantage of ambient occlusion and soft shading, or use HDRI as the light source for more realistic images for evaluating, presenting, and marketing designs. Autodesk Alias software features geometric environments with built-in HDRI lighting and reflections, making it easier than ever to create stunning product visualizations in realistic settings.
