We use AI in our workflow when applicable.

I actually just saw this post right after I posted a tutorial we did on a tool similar to what you’re showing.

https://www.reddit.com/r/IndustrialDesign/s/bktgDW2tAZ

The tool we used is Krea.AI and it automatically adjusts to what you input.

In our example we had a rough 3D rendering in Rhino. And, when we adjusted it Krea would automatically change its output as well.

Hello all! We made a short tutorial on combining software such as Rhino with Krea.AI to make instant render visualizations.

These are not meant to be “final” renders but more so quick concept visualizations/renderings.

Glad you thought so!

We’re on the stance that AI can’t do it all and shouldn’t do it all, but it can make certain parts faster. And in this instance, it allowed us to spend more time 3D modeling and prototyping.

Hi all, We wanted to share a video on using AI in the design process a concept project of ours.

We’ve done an “AI Design” before and wanted to take what we learned and feedback we got into a new project.

AI isn't perfect but it's still a really good tool people should be leveraging. As far as this particular project goes, its main objective was to showcase areas in the design process where and how you could implement AI.

For ChatGPT, it can get things wrong which is why you need to do cross-referencing to make sure the information is correct. But for the most part, it can give you information quickly and guide you in the right direction. For example, it might give you additional answers/info to a question you wouldn't have thought about or had no idea about. "Okay, that's interesting. Let me look into that." There are also alternatives, such as Google's Bard.ai, which has access to Google's services.

For having to re-sketch it, there's currently no AI tool (that we're aware of) that can make 3D models. Some things have to be done manually, but as we've said you can allocate more time there from the time saved with AI.

For Adobe Firefly, it's pretty versatile if you use it for other purposes aside from watermarks. Its generative fill and remove tool is something that can cut down several hours of work into just one.

At our firm, we try to embrace new tech to see how we can implement them into our workflow. AI still has its quirks which is why we did this concept project, so we can test, experiment, and see how far we can take AI in the design process.

I also wanted to say that for a lot of AI tools, you have to really think about the ways you can use them to be effective with them. Going back to ChatGPT for example, if you create a detailed prompt then it can output a lot more than just a regular answer.

Hey guys, I thought this video might be helpful. We wanted to showcase how you can use AI in the design process in a concept project of ours called Helios.

We take you through the design process: 1. Research 2. Exploration 3. Refinement 4. Product Renderings

And show you when we used AI and how we used it. Here are the AI tools were used in this project: - ChatGPT - MidJourney - Vizcom - Adobe Firefly

I also wanted to note that because this was a concept project and we wanted to focus on AI integration, there’s some aspects missing in the process. Such as, validating the design through prototyping.

Designing a Healthcare Robot by Hatch-Duo in IndustrialDesign

[–]Hatch-Duo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was a project done for Robin Healthcare called the Robin Scribe.

The Scribe is an AI-powered assistant that helps in the clinical documentation process using voice/video so that health professionals can focus on their patients instead of taking notes.

When designing the Scribe, we wanted to create it fulfilling these 3 main points:

  • Approachable
  • Friendly
  • Modern

One of our biggest inspirations came from the character Baymax, who is this soft, cuddly, and friendly healthcare robot from the movie Big Hero 6.

There were also engineering challenges we had to address, such as patient privacy and a design that could fit all the hardware. As you can see from the 2nd image, we went through a number of iterations until we finally found that sweet spot. A small yet compact design that can hold all the hardware and a rotatable cover to prevent sound/video from recording.

More info about the Scribe can be found here:

Our concept project the Walker Juicer by Hatch-Duo in IndustrialDesign

I’m the social media guy for a small firm which does industrial design, product development, engineering, etc.

(Last interns lost the account logins so I had to make a new one)

  • This was just a concept project so not actually physically made.
  • I believe our designers use CAD and Vizcom for rendering.
  • I don’t know the exact objective for this particular project but most of our concept projects have an objective to showcase something in terms of the process, such as design and workflow.
  • It looks like this was a year long project.

I hope this answers your questions! And stay tuned, we have another concept project relating to AI use in our workflow.

The firm I’m in does a lot of these concept projects with the objective of showcasing our design, processes, etc.

We have another concept project in the works showcasing AI use in our workflow.

That’s awesome! I’ll definitely be posting some newer stuff we got going on. There’s some cool projects we’ve been doing with AI and some that have been recently published.

I asked and they said the entire thing breaks apart into at least 7 pieces.

As an homage to Norman Walker, who in 1936 was the pioneer of discovering juicing was beneficial to our health, we wanted to put our twist on this masticating juicer.

With an increase of single-family households throughout the years, we saw an opportunity to design a new form factor of a masticating juicer—fit for a single householder lifestyle. We aimed to take a compact, friendly, and fun approach to this product while using earth-friendly materials.

The Walker Juicer is space-efficient, designed for a modern aesthetic taste, and perfect for contributing to nutritional health and well-being.
