Uninhibited free form 3d Nurbs modeling
Accuracy
Fast ( from note book to worksation
Affordalbe
300 000 seats worldwide
The Choice of Rhinoceros as a
Geomodeling plateform

Advanced 3D Primitives with double precision location (
Meshes , NURBS, Point cloud)
UUID (database connection)
3d Topology ( Breps )
Low Footprint and very good scalabity (from Notebook to
high end Workstation)
32 ,64 bits good C++ sdk and low price entry point
High performance OpenGl Display Engine
We don’t invent the wheel the second time
