The X3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) Working Group is happy to present a public Birds of a Feather (BOF) meeting at SIGGRAPH 2012.

Overview of technical goals and major progress (Don, 1 minute)
Review weekend highlights of Web3D Conference relevant to X3D CAD (Yvonne or Christophe, 5 minutes)
Recent work (2-3 minutes each)
- Status of new or improved browsers
- PartDB Demo, Catia to X3D Converter using [X3D CAD Macro-Parametric Approach for Translation] (Hyo)
- STEP2X3D Web-converter Demo (Vince)
- Fraunhofer IGD X3DOM Demo (someone from IGD)
- X3D Validator and X3D-Edit Demos (Don)
- Xj3D source code merging progress (Don Terry Vince and Hyo)
- Compressed binary encoding progress and plans (Don)

Conclusions and next steps (Don, 2 minutes):
- good NURBS support will be able to deploy CAD X3D on any device
- direct B-REP Component can be an alternative for X3D
- CADinterchange profile enhancements (2D nodes, NURBS, lines etc.)
