 Alias

®

 Design, part of the Autodesk 

solution for Digital Prototyping, is for consumer 
product designers who control the entire design 
process—from ideation to the final surfaces that 
are passed to engineering. It enables designers to 
rapidly develop and communicate product design 
concepts using sketches, illustrations, photorealistic 
renderings, and animations.

Autodesk Alias Surface 

Autodesk

 Alias

®

 Surface software, part of the 

Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping,
offers a full set of dynamic 3D modeling capabilities 
that enable virtual modelers to evolve concept 
models and scan data into high-quality production 
surfaces for consumer product design and Class-A 
surfaces for automotive design and styling. 

Autodesk Alias Automotive 

Autodesk

®

 Alias

®

 Automotive software, part of 

the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping, is an 
industry-leading application for automotive
design and styling and the choice of leading 
automotive styling studios throughout the world. 
The software provides a comprehensive set of 
visualization and analysis tools for the entire shape-
definition process, from concept sketches through 
Class-A surfacing.

The Autodesk

®

 Alias product line, part of the Autodesk solution 

for Digital Prototyping helps optimize the creative design process 

with industry-leading sketching, modeling, and visualization 

tools that help you quickly realize ideas in a single environment.
