Autodesk, Inc. has announced that Autodesk Inventor Fusion technology for 3D CAD modeling is now available for download in the Mac App Store for the first time. It requires Mac OS X 10.6 or higher and is a free download.

Autodesk Inventor Fusion for Mac takes advantage of new OS X Mountain Lion capabilities to help increase productivity and transform how designers share designs and receive feedback, whether in face-to-face meetings or participating in social communities, according to the folks at Autodesk, Inc. It lets designers explore complex shapes and forms.

Autodesk Inventor Fusion's 3D direct manipulation tools allow users to open and edit 3D models from almost any source and incorporate them into new or existing designs. Additionally, it helps users leverage their 3D CAD modeling in full screen mode. The software is fully interoperable with AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor software and a variety of other Autodesk and third party CAD tools.
