Learning Rhino: Basicsįor the basics of Rhino, the best overview is essentials training. The first time you start the software, you have to type in the server address - in order to use the software. Install the software, when asked for a license, check that you are on VPN and choose the Zoo server option. Simply get the installation file from McNeel. There is a special CNC focused machine with Rhino at the workshop.įree access: You can get Rhino 5 for windows for free.
School access: We have Rhino 5 installed, together with Grasshopper at the School LAB.
IRhino: A limited Tablet Version is available for iOS at the Apple App Store. Rhino OSX (Mac): This is currently an open Beta-program where you can enroll and download Rhino OSX for free Rhino 5: 195 Euros for students (free while studying, see below) Also, with Visual ARQ, which adds common arhictectural tools such those found in Revit or ArchiCAD, Rhino becomes a lot closer to a holistic architectural design tool. Rhino has also added Python support in addition to RhinoScript, C# and VB.net, making the programming side more accessible to non-programmers. However, with the introduction of Grasshopper, more and more architects are using Rhino for generating parametrically driven models.
In Architecture, Rhino has been mainly used to make either geometrically complex parts of a building or to make simple complete designs. This makes Rhino somewhat a swiss army knife solution for creating geometry - you can always find a way of doing it. The core idea of the product is to have a capable modeler that is well documented allowing independent developers to add to the functionality through plugins and scripts. It is used in a variety of professions from ship and product design to architecture and reverse engineering. Rhinoceros 3D is a NURBS based 3D modeler suitable for making everything from simple line drawings to advanced geometry and complex programming-driven models.
