Recent advances in generative AI enable the creation of text, images, and increasingly 3D objects. In engineering design, this opens up new possibilities for AI-assisted CAD model generation. Instead of manually modeling geometry, designers can collaborate with GenAI systems. However, transforming generative models into effective design tools requires well-designed interaction mechanisms. This relies on graphical user interfaces (GUIs) that allow for interaction between the human designer and GenAI.
Objective
The goal of this work is to develop and evaluate concepts for interactive human-AI collaboration in CAD model generation.
This may include:
- Researching approches for human-AI interaction
- Designing interaction concepts for co-creative CAD model generation
- Developing a prototype GUI
- Evaluating the prototype on usability, interaction quality, …
Requirements
- Enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science
- Strong ability to work independently
- Very good coding programming (e.g. Python)
- Solid knowledge of software development principles
- Proficient with git
- Basic understanding of machine and deep learning
- Interest in human-AI interaction
