Instructional Material: LEGO Digital Designer_CAD Tool

LEGO Digital Designer (LDD) is a pseudo-CAD tool that allows student to create 3D CAD drawings of their robotics creations. (NOTE: If you cannot find the current version of LDD, try the attached LDD Setup file (4.3.9) - this is no longer supported/updated, but has all the EV3 parts built in).

In the View menu, choose the New Theme sub-menu and select LEGO MINDSTORMS to limit the parts selection to relevant pieces.

Then at the bottom of the left-hand menu palette, select the icon for "Filter bricks by boxes". and then select your MINDSTORMS Kit type from this menu.
