  2. #2 · earthtojake/text-to-cad

    text-to-cad

    text-to-cad is a library of agent skills for CAD, CAE and CAM: it gives coding agents focused workflows to generate, inspect, source, slice, and hand off CAD and robot-description artifacts from your local project files.

    MANPADS-System-Launcher-and-Rocket

    3.9Knovatic14/MANPADS-System-Launcher-and-Rocket

    A proof-of-concept man-portable air-defense system: a DIY launcher and interceptor built from consumer electronics and 3D-printed components, documented on GitHub as a hardware project.

  2. 5

    microduck-replica

    1.2Kfanhao375/microduck-replica · HTML

    This is a third-party reverse-engineering project that reconstructs the hardware of Pollen Robotics' Microduck bipedal robot duck - deriving assembly drawings, CAD files and a full electronics scheme from the official public MJCF simulation model and Rust source code, since the mechanical parts and one PCB were never officially open-sourced.

  3. 6

    QymCAD

    699QymIs-Tech/QymCAD · Rust

    QymCAD is a desktop parametric CAD application for mechanical parts and assemblies, built on a real B-rep kernel (OpenCASCADE). Sketches become solids via extrude, revolve or sweep, and parts combine into assemblies through joints.

  4. 7

    OpenCourant

    374OpenCourant/OpenCourant · Fortran

    OpenCourant is an open-source build of OpenRadioss, an explicit finite element solver used to simulate highly nonlinear dynamic events like crashes, impacts, and explosions.
