About Paper:

In the field of mechanical design, there are many designers capable of creating innovative 3D models; however, unfamiliarity with computer- aided design (CAD) applications can limit their creativity and efficiency. Previous systems, such as DeepCAD and CAD-Llama, generate 3D models for users, yet they may not produce results that satisfy users' needs. To overcome limitations in inefficient generation, we present CADialogs, a system that streamlines 3D design by guiding users through the model-building process step by step. Leveraging a GenAI- based framework, our system generates one component of the model at each step and allows users to modify parameters or add elements to match their expectations before proceeding to the next step. Users simply enter a text prompt describing their requirements, and our system generates an updated model component based on the prompt. We have completed significant preparatory work, including data preparation for model training, format conversions, and development of parts of both the frontend and backend interfaces. We plan to conduct a user study with 20 participants and gather feedback using a standard survey focused on simplicity, accuracy, and usability. We anticipate strong positive feedback, with average scores for each question showing improvement over previous systems, demonstrating that our system is more flexible and precise in generating models that meet users' needs.
