20140184593 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF STORING OBJECT INFORMATION AS PREDEFINED ISLAND ARTIFACTS IN THE CAD MODEL - A CAD model information encoder tool that allows encoding one or more parameters of an object in a three dimensional (3D) CAD model is provided. The CAD model information encoder tool includes (i) a memory unit that stores a) a database, and b) a CAD module, and (ii) a processor. The processor executes the CAD module to generate the 3D CAD model. The CAD module includes a) a header encoding module that uses one or more existing parameters to declare and encode one or more parameters in the 3D CAD model, and b) a body encoding module that encodes one or more object information related to the one or more parameters declared in a predefined island artifact of said three dimensional CAD model as a combination of said plurality of existing parameters. The database stores the 3D CAD model with predefined island artifacts. | 07-03-2014 |
