Rhino files are used in
architecture and computational design for complex building forms and façades, in industrial design for consumer products, furniture and footwear, and in engineering for early design exploration, surface development and reverse engineering. They also feed
3D printing through mesh exports, and jewelry, marine and transportation design, where smooth, controlled surfaces matter.
For software developers building CAD, CAM, CAE, additive manufacturing or visualization applications, Rhino support means accepting freeform design data and preparing it for downstream operations.
