Abstract
Subject of this research is the complete integration of the styling process into the computeraided product development and thus to optimise the process chain design and to close media gaps. A new voxel-based 3D modeller is developed, the Virtual Clay Modelling System (VCM) (1), allowing the stylist to work with the virtual clay model in strong analogy to conventional clay modelling, supported by advanced VR-techniques. The VCM provides a STL- and CLI-interface, which serve as input for the selective laser sintering (SLS) process.
