Researchers have developed new agentic systems for Computer-Aided Design (CAD) that can generate complex 3D assemblies with moving parts, a capability previously lacking in AI-driven design tools. One system, AADvark, incorporates external solvers and visual feedback to reason about dynamic interactions, enabling the creation of functional mechanical components. Concurrently, the Zero-to-CAD framework synthesizes approximately one million executable CAD sequences, providing a large-scale dataset of procedural design information. This synthetic data has been used to train vision-language models that can reconstruct editable CAD programs from images, outperforming existing baselines. AI
