Examples of this software include: AutoCAD 3DS Max - 3D Animation/Designing Software SketchUp - from Google Blender - Blender is free and open source software, available to download from Blender.org Once you have a 3D files you can either use this to make real-world products or visualise real-world products. 3D designs created in a 3D software package such as AutoCAD, 3D Max, Blender, or other...
