A PRODUCT DESIGNER
If I were one, I’d leap at the chance to try computer-aided graphics. Sooner or later, American industry will make widespread use of machines that automatically turn drawings into real frying pans, soap bars, or refrigerator cabinets. Well, it won’t be that simple. But computer graphics and related technologies will increasingly blur the line between creative types and production people.
Just look at the newspaper industry. Reporters, after all, on most daily papers are basically setting the type for their stories as they tap them out.
But back to the factory. The jargon is computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing or CAD/CAM.
