Introduction to Rhinoceros 3D

Overview

“I will give you a run through some basic concepts of geometry, points and lines to clarify the terminology that you will use throughout the course. These concepts are necessary to be able to draw correctly and accurately the elements with which you are going to model, and to better understand the curves that define the views of the objects. ”

In this video lesson Diego Fernández addresses the topic: Geometry basics, which is part of the Domestika online course: Course 1: Introduction and Basic Concepts. Understand Rhino’s 3D environment and work mechanics to start modeling.

“INTRODUCTION TO RHINOCEROS / COURSE 1 UNIT 5 Basic concepts of geometry In this Unit 5, we will review some basic concepts of geometry needed to start modeling in Rhino. Three-dimensional space in Rhinoceros is represented using a Cartesian coordinate system. A Cartesian system is a system of axes orthogonal to each other that concur at a point of origin. In this case, we have these three axes, the X axis, the Y axis and the Z axis. Between them they have 90 °, as we already said, that is, they are orthogonal to each other and they converge at the same point that is the point of origin. Thi...”
