Meet the Graphical Algorithm Editor in Rhino

Grasshopper is a visual programming language that runs within the Rhinoceros 3D computer-aided design application. It is used to create parametric designs. Grasshopper within Rhino 6 can be used in two main ways : One – To create different designs using the same concept by changing the parameters. E.g. Number of folds on a surface Two – Reduce the time span of repetitive tasks using the same algorithm with different geometries in different designs. E.g. Designs to be placed in a gallery Grasshopper is now used extensively in Architecture and Product Design and is upcoming in the Jewelry Industry.
