Vectorizing raster images (JPEG, PNG) into clean, editable curves is a fundamental task for architects, industrial designers, and digital fabricators. In Rhino 7 (released and widely adopted throughout 2021), this process bridges the gap between hand-drawn sketches, graphic logos, and precise CNC, laser cutting, or 3D modeling workflows.
While powerful, for creating clean outlines. Users in 2021 highlighted that while Illustrator remains superior for full-color "painterly" styles, Vectorize is superior for fast, accurate CAD-ready linework directly in the Rhino environment.
This native component reads the brightness or color values of an image based on a grid of points. You can use this data to generate variable-sized circles, perforations, or 3D relief surfaces (extrusions).
