KaTy is a technical illustration package that renders 3-D objects in a variety of conventional illustration styles from stippling to cross-hatching, all with variable "weight-of-line" and line highlights. All surface patterns follow form and inherent surface highlights, assisting the orientation of components by shape. Properly annotated, these features are ideal for the description of complex assembly and maintenance procedures. Using 3-D object databases, many different views of each object can be drawn quickly and accurately, and the drawings can be animated. KaTy's applications are in manuals, maintenance training, and media illustration, using low-cost printing methods.
