10. Trends in AI Based Design Research - Non Parametric 3D Design Generation

Namwoo Kang, CEO of Narnia Labs and Professor at KAIST, walks through how deep learning is replacing traditional parametric generation in engineering design, and what that actually unlocks. The core idea: instead of defining a shape through hand-crafted parameters, you teach a neural network to understand geometry implicitly through signed distance functions, and then generate entirely new designs by interpolating in latent space. The result is a level of design exploration that parametric methods simply cannot reach. Learn more at 👉 https://www.narnia.ai/ #GenerativeAI #EngineeringDesign #ManufacturingAI
