Designing the future, together
We partner with industry leaders from around the world who are passionate about pushing the boundaries of research to unlock the highest levels of innovation.
“We worked with staff from Autodesk Research to evaluate ideas for our UMV prototypes using generative design. This helped to inform our decision on a mechanical design direction. Autodesk Research has been an important partner since the early days of New Horizons Studio, and I’m grateful for our partnership.”
