Grasshopper Canvas Real Estate

As we've begun to share definitions within our office, we've found it a challenge to have more than one person interact physically with a definition and thought maybe we just need more space.  We're…Continue

position geometry relative to viewport

I'm looking to create an analysis key for a GH file and would like the key to always appear along some edge of the Rhino viewport.  Any ideas?  Continue

Grasshopper to Ansys and Back

Here is a short experiment that we recently worked where we created a connection between Grasshopper and Ansys.  There are four main VB components responsible for writing the ANSYS macro, exporting…Continue

Thanks Andy! It would be great to see RGBD sensors get cheaper and more modular...that's likely in the nearish term, right?  We can imagine plugging a little RGBD sensor into an Arduino, grabbing the depth buffer, doing the CV and particle…

Multi-touch Grasshopper Interaction with Kinect: Open Source

We have finally cleaned up our code, documented, and commented enough to release our depth-as-touch interaction with the Microsoft Kinect into the public domain as free, opensource, copyleft, GPL-licensed code.  As our demo interaction was built around our favorite software (Grasshopper), we thought it best to announce it here.  The source is written in C/C++ linked against Microsoft's Kinect for PC SDK.  We've provided the Visual Studio solution files, our code, but you will have to link it…See More

Ernest- Thanks for asking!  It's not finished. We fully intend to release the source Kinect touch project as soon as it's ready (perhaps a matter of weeks now).  It's not implemented in Grasshopper, but rather a stand-alone…

Hi there I'm new to this kind of component programming for Grasshopper and for Grasshopper too. So I need to develop a component to request data from a Tracking Device over the time repeatedly. I was wondering whether you would share that…

Looking forward to DIVA 2.0.  We've been getting a lot of mileage out of the DIVA GH components.  Thanks for the great work.

DIVA for Daylighting is Awesome!

 We've been playing around with the DIVA plugin for awhile now and are really impressed with the work that GSD-Squared is doing.  Follow the link to read more about how we've been using it.  We can't wait to use DIVA 2.0.See More

DIVA for Rhino

DIVA-for-Rhino is a plugin which runs thermal, daylight, solar radiation, and glare simulations. Our goal is to bring validated environmental simulations directly to the conceptual design environments of Rhino and GH without going through the black box of third party software.See More

If your 5 lists are separate then: 1.  Graft each list 2.  Combine all lists into single collection (each path should contain 5 values, 1 for each original list) 3.  Find the maximum value for each path.

I understand. Although it would be an enormous and fantastic achievement if somebody would succeed in connecting Grasshopper with Ansys.   Thank you for the replies.

The workflow was the analysis of a space frame structure using a small sets of elements from the ANSYS library.  The setup of that analysis was coded into one of the VB component.  If you wanted to instead analyze a post and beam structure…

thank you for the reply.   by "particular workflow" you mean, that those VB components worked only for that specific project of yours and that they can not be used for a different one?

lmnts replied to lmnts's discussion 'Grasshopper to Ansys and Back'
Yes they did work.  We wrote them to carry out a particular workflow.  At the time we thought we could extend the components to become more generalized to other operations within ANSYS but we never had the time to do so.

Thank you for the reply. But you seemed to get some kind of result? So these VB components worked, at least on a beta level?

Djordje, To be honest we haven't been able to put any time into furthering the developing of these components.  At the time it was an interesting proof of concept for us.  Since then we've become distracted with other interests.

Multi-touch Grasshopper Interaction with Kinect

We have been working on a method of interacting with the Grasshopper Canvas with intuitive, multi-touch gestures registered by the RGBD camera on the Microsoft Kinect.   The Kinect depth resolution is enough to detect touch events on an arbitrary surface, so we've recreated a giant canvas using a projector,…
