GEM Version 2.0 - improves upon Version 1.0.

ParaCloud (Tel-Aviv, IL) started the distribution of GEM Version 2.0, introducing tools for designing with meshes. GEM is a 3D Pattern Modeler that overlays mesh geometry with 3D Objects sampled from CAD software.

The new GEM 2.0 offers rule-based tools for offsetting, deforming, and mapping mesh geometries. The rule-based tools allow transformations according to targets,  height, and focus points. GEM supports up to 10 different components that can be applied according to selection or rule-based mapping.

The simple and straightforward approach of GEM to Generative Design makes it possible to create complex design models effortlessly. No previous knowledge is required and the software is quick and easy to learn.

ParaCloud GEM brings generative design tools to all design disciplines, with no scripting requirements, says the company. GEM works with SketchUP Pro, Rhino, Cinema 4D,  3DS Max, Maya or any 3D software supporting OBJ, DXF and VRML 2.0. The OBJ output can be imported to PhotoShop CS4 as a 3D Layer.
