OLOID.FD: A Journey from Concept to Full-Scale Experience

Imagining the eVTOL of the future

Transportation is undergoing major changes, driven by rapidly evolving trends, technological advancements and societal shifts. As a result, the industry is innovating to create safer, smarter, more customized and sustainable alternatives, with countless companies joining the race to develop novel modes of transport.
​​​​​​​
Designer Takumi Yamamoto set out to explore what the mobility of 2050 could look like with modeler Tomislav Solina and Dassault Systèmes’ CATIA R&D Design team.

​​​​​​​Using 3DEXPERIENCE® CATIA on the cloud’s capabilities for creative design, they conceptualized the OLOID.FD: a high-performing, light and sustainable electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft that embodies the convergence of science, technology and art.

In this e-book, delve into the team’s creative process to imagine both the vehicle and the design methods of tomorrow and find out how using 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA on the cloud enabled them to:

  • Innovate and iterate collaboratively
  • Enhance their creativity with an immersive design approach
  • Virtually test and simulate performance, appearance and styling with the eVTOL’s virtual twin
  • Go further in design exploration with algorithmic design
  • Design for sustainability from the start

“With this project, I wanted to challenge conventions, not like a sci-fi movie but to create something new to inspire the future of transportation.”
