Abstract
Designers in the automotive industry as well as in other industries with high demands in aesthetic shape and style design most intensively use Computer-Aided Industrial Design (CAID), which is also known as Computer-Aided Styling (CAS). It supports the design/styling process much better than CAD systems because it is more intuitive to work with and allows inaccuracies in sketching as well as in modeling. This chapter provides a first insight into the underlying technologies of CAID and explains the specific surface modeling and surface quality analysis capabilities of modern CAID Systems. It is indispensable for all who need to become part of the class A modeling and reverse engineering community of product modeling.
