Fusion 360 provides a new approach to 3D CAD, enabling people of all skill levels to take their idea from concept to fabrication.<\/p>\n<p>Fusion 360 brings CAD, CAM and CAE together in the cloud. It\u2019s an integrated, connected, and accessible platform built for the new ways that products are being designed and made. From the beginning, its earliest adopters have been disruptive hardware startups and manufacturers who recognize that Fusion 360 is breaking down barriers and disrupting the CAD market.<\/p>\n<p>While Fusion 360 in English is already available in Japan, its upcoming local-language debut will make it even more accessible for the country\u2019s designers, engineers and innovators. &quot;Compared to other tools, Fusion 360 has a more intuitive interface and highly realistic rendering \u2013&#160;so real that you can feel its atmosphere,\u201d said Tetsuya Konishi, co-founder and CCO of Exiii, a Japanese firm already using Fusion 360 to design myoelectric prosthetic hands.&#160; \u201cFusion 360 is easy to use and enhances your productivity. &#160;It&#039;s a tool that helps creators from the day they start using it.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to be bringing this disruptive product to the Japanese market, which is renowned for both its product and manufacturing process innovation\u201d said Kevin Schneider, Director of Fusion 360 at Autodesk. &#160;\u201cFusion 360, which provides an integrated experience for everything from concept to fabrication, will empower Japanese industrial designers, mechanical engineers, manufacturers, students and makers to imagine, design and create products in this cloud-connected era.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>&#160;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"http:\/\/inthefold.autodesk.com\/.a\/6a017c3334c51a970b01bb085befb3970d-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"1\" border=\"0\" class=\"asset  asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b01bb085befb3970d image-full img-responsive\" src=\"http:\/\/inthefold.autodesk.com\/.a\/6a017c3334c51a970b01bb085befb3970d-800wi\" title=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>A motorized prosthetic hand designed by the Japanese company Exiii, a current Fusion 360 customer.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/makezine.jp\/event\/mft2015\/\">Maker Faire Tokyo<\/a> event showcases all the ways of making and manufacturing are changing.
