Enhancing Visual Programming for Effortless 3D & App Creation
This episode of AEC Trailblazers: The Founders Files features Mathias and Alex, the co-founders of ShapeDiver. These two mathematicians, coming from outside the AEC industry, saw a gap in how architects and engineers apply technology: they identified the need for an easier way to create 3D models and applications through visual programming – without writing complex code. Enter ShapeDiver, a product that transforms visual programming into cloud solutions.
Tune in to this podcast to hear Mathias and Alex discuss their journey and the building of ShapeDiver, an innovative AEC startup offering cloud applications powered by Grasshopper and Rhino Compute.
