Abstract

CAD (Computer Aided Design) is almost instead of classical designing method which drawing plan on paper nowadays. With the development of information technology, the traditional CAD technology becomes rather matured and is developing towards a modern direction of being further integrative, intelligent, and collaborative, namely ICAD (Intelligent CAD). ICAD is a complex system consist of multi agents or multi experts to design product. It can simulate expert in this area to help designer accomplish design. ICAD is based on some technology such as artificial intelligence, CAD technique, expert systems technique, modern mechanical design theory and database technique. In this chapter, the reason of ICAD proposing is given firstly, then some research and application is described on the second sector. Thirdly, some theory and technique about ICAD is discussed. Finally, a case study is presented.
