The Autodesk 123D Catch for iPad is a new free app that lets users take images from their iPad camera and upload them to the Autodesk cloud service that transforms the images into a 3D model.
Complementing the desktop and newly released online versions, the Autodesk 123D Catch app allows users to capture the world around them in 3D while on the go. Captures made in 123D Catch can also be used as the foundation for further 3D modeling, 3D animation, or used to create a 3D printed object.
123D Catch users can take advantage of a connected group of Autodesk software, fabrication services for 3D printing and laser cutting, and a community of like-minded individuals focused on 3D design and personal fabrication. The Autodesk 123D family provides users with the ability to capture, design and make their ideas, and connect with others for support or inspiration.
Autodesk also introduced a new feature for 123D products called My Corner, which provides cloud storage for all 123D design projects while connecting 123D product workflows. This feature will enable users to share files between products - 123D, 123D Catch, 123D Make, and 123D Sculpt - to explore their creative ideas, or even use that model to create a physical object through fabrication services. Users can also share their projects and explore other people's creations from an online gallery that supplies an abundance of ideas for creative projects.
