The vehicle was modeled in Rhino with Python scripting for parametric design control. AI tools including Gemini and Grok assisted with design exploration and iteration. Autodesk was used for rendering and structural analysis.
Sole creator, lead engineer, and designer on the project from initial concept through completed 3D model.
