I\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the first to wonder what awesome products the great inventors of the world would have been able to create if they were alive and had access to the tools we use today.\u00a0 Back in 2014, I wrote an article asking this question of Leonardo daVinci:\u00a0 What if Leonardo da Vinci had SOLIDWORKS?<\/em><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0The blog received a lot of interest, and it seems I was not alone, as many responded and shared the article.<\/p>\n However, taking this thought to the next level: I was curious if these great innovators could have ever worked together with tools such as SOLIDWORKS, how would they have collaborated?\u00a0 What would they have created?\u00a0 It was widely known that many engineering greats did not work together, much less like each other (i.e. Tesla and Edison).\u00a0 Interesting that we still see this behavior today, as engineers and inventors of different disciplines do not collaborate well, and use completely different tools to design, making collaboration more difficult.\u00a0 For example, electrical and mechanical engineers currently use different tools, and hand designs back and forth using common formats.<\/p>\n
