IntelliCAD Technology Consortium (ITC), developer of one of the most popular platforms in the CAD industry, and 3Dconnexion, the industry standard for CAD input devices, announce the availability of an integration between software and hardware to streamline the CAD workflow and improve control and efficiency in the IntelliCAD framework.
The direct integration between IntelliCAD’s software platform and 3Dconnexion’s award-winning CadMouse and SpaceMouse products improves CAD engineer efficiency by 28% per hour with advanced features such as a dedicated middle mouse button for smooth, intuitive navigation.
CAD modeling software is growing more sophisticated to keep pace with the progress of technology. Some of the most powerful platforms in this space, such as IntelliCAD, contain over 1,000 unique commands. To help CAD engineers leverage this, they rely on modern engineering workspaces. This trend toward intuitive CAD software supported with professional input devices that offer more accurate and efficient workflows benefits organizations by providing improved product quality and faster time-to-market.
For organizations with time-sensitive projects, leveraging professional input devices can speed up development times dramatically. The integration between IntelliCAD and 3Dconnexion provides end users with effortless navigation, including QuickZoom functionality, extensive customization options, unlimited command access that switches dynamically with environments, radial menus, macros, and much more. All this with peace of mind knowing that all future 3Dconnexion devices will also be compatible with IntelliCAD.
President of IntelliCAD Technology Consortium, David Lorenzo stated, “We create intuitive software, but in the end, ease-of-use comes down to how users interact with their input devices. We have been working within the limitations of standard keyboards and mice for years, and our members are excited that 3Dconnexion is creating innovative input devices specifically for CAD users and 3D modeling. Our partnership with 3Dconnexion ensures a solid implementation for their current devices and the opportunity for us to innovate with them on future devices.”
Jason Poitras, General Manager of MicroSurvey Software, a part of the Hexagon Group and an ITC member tells, “This will be a great addition to IntelliCAD and I’m looking forward to using it to navigate 3D models and environments in our IntelliCAD based solutions MicroSurvey CAD and Leica Geosystems Map360.”
ITC Chairperson and CEO of CAD-Manufacturing Systems, Inc., Vitor Neves shares, "CMS IntelliCAD software users will have the option to use and enjoy the state-of-the-art 3D mouse technology for modeling and, consequently, increase their productivity immensely. 2D users can gain productivity too using the 3Dconnexion CadMouse with high precision control and five programmable buttons."
This integration was developed by IntelliCAD in partnership with 3Dconnexion, using the freely available 3Dconnexion Software Development Kit (SDK). IntelliCAD will offer the integration as part of their standard build starting with the 2021 release of IntelliCAD version 10.1. For device selection and availability, please visit 3Dconnexion.com.
About the IntelliCAD Technology Consortium
The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium is an independent, non-profit organization funded and directed by its members specifically for the shared development of CAD technology. By sharing the development cost for complex projects, ITC members develop solutions for far less money than any single company could do alone. The result is a complete CAD engine and development platform: IntelliCAD.
ITC members use the IntelliCAD platform to create some of the most popular CAD engines and applications for surveyors, architects, and engineers. As a result, millions of end users work and draw in products based on IntelliCAD in more than 130 countries. The ITC is also a founding member of the Open Design Alliance, thereby contributing to interoperability in the engineering industry.

“The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium” (the “ITC”) and Suzhou Gstarsoft Co. Ltd. (“Gstar”) are pleased to announce that they have reached a full and final global settlement resolving all disputes stemming from the parties’ prior business relationship, including a lawsuit filed by the ITC against Gstar pending in United States District Courts for the District of Oregon, and a lawsuit filed by Gstar against the ITC pending in the Intermediate People’s Court of Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, People’s Republic of China.
“The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium”（“ITC”）和苏州浩辰软件股份有限公司（“浩辰”）很高兴地宣布，双方已在全球范围内，针对由双方先前商业关系引发的所有纠纷（包括目前正在进行的、由ITC在美国俄勒冈联邦地区法院对浩辰发起的诉讼，以及浩辰在中华人民共和国江苏省苏州市中级人民法院对ITC发起的诉讼），达成了全面和最终的和解。
In the United States lawsuit, the ITC had alleged that Gstar misappropriated and improperly used the ITC’s intellectual properties. Gstar denied the allegations, and maintained that it independently developed its products and has independent intellectual property rights. In the Suzhou lawsuit, Gstar sought a declaratory judgment of non-infringement.
在美国的诉讼案件中，ITC声称浩辰不当使用了ITC的知识产权。浩辰否认了ITC的指控，并坚持相关产品由其独立开发，并对相关产品拥有独立的知识产权。浩辰进而在苏州的诉讼案件中请求法院作出确认不侵权的认定。
The parties’ global settlement fully and conclusively resolves their disputes. No party has admitted any wrongdoing or liability, and there has not been any court finding as to the merits of the parties’ lawsuits. However, in order to resolve the disputes completely and avoid any future misunderstandings, the parties entered into a confidential settlement agreement.
双方本次全球范围内的和解全面且最终地解决了双方的纠纷。任何一方均不承认任何不当行为或责任，并且法院也未就双方诉讼案件的实质性内容做出任何认定。为了全面地解决纠纷，并避免任何将来可能产生的误解，双方签订了保密和解协议。
The parties appreciate each other’s efforts in resolving this matter amicably.
双方感谢彼此在友好解决纠纷过程中做出的努力。
