CAD-integration 1: complete automation in Rhino.
For some applications it is nice to completely hide the
DeskProto user-interface, allowing any untrained user to generate
flawless toolpaths. DeskProto allows such complete automation, using
it's default parameters.
In Rhino you can
add one button to execute this complete process. When
manufacturing series of a product with minor variations
this can save you lots of time !

CAD-integration 2: start DeskProto from MoI.
MoI stands for Moment of Inspiration, a relatively new 3D CAD program. We have
heard positive comments, have been asked about starting DeskProto
from MoI, and have found that it is easy to add a
DeskProto button to MoI.
We published our findings on the
DeskProto forum.
