Dynamo AI

Autodesk Revit + Dynamo

Autodesk Dynamo is a Visual Programming Platform. Provide explainable insights into "AI system issues---Black Box"

Dynamo allows users to create visual scripts to automate tasks, design complex geometries, and manage data withing applications like Revit, Civil 3D and others.

 

To become a Dynamo Expert, a strong background in computational thinking and logic is essential, for expert-level tasks programming skills in languages like Python are necessary.  Hiring skilled contractor or outsourcing the Dynamo scripting will be solutions for medium sized firm. A BIM Specialist, Automation Specialist, or a Computational Designer, depends on the firm’s structure and how the role fits into workflow, will be the person using Dynamo to automate tasks, enhance digital models, and solving complex design challenges.


Why Dynamo is valuable:

  • Data Management: read and write data to and from other programs as Excel.
  • Automation of repetitive tasks
  • Comples geometry and modeling
  • Custom tool creation
  • Enhancement of BIM Workflow
  • Model Management: view creation, sheet creation, parameter updates.
  • Facilitate data communications between applications
