* Important Note: For the latest versions of LunchBox, use the versions available on the Rhino Package Manager**
LunchBox is a plug-in for Grasshopper for exploring mathematical shapes, paneling, structures, and data management. LunchBox also includes a set of machine learning components that are an implementation of ML.NET and Accord.NET frameworks – including regression, clustering, and classification algorithms.
Available components include….
- Data: Components for dataset management, XML, and JSON formats
- Generate: Components for cool generative geometry.
- Math: Create parametric surfaces and forms such as the Mobius, Klein, or 3D Supershape
- Panels: Create paneling systems such as quad grids, diamonds, or triangles.
- Structure: Create wire structures such as diagrids or space trusses.
- Utility: Geometry utiltiies, sorters, R-tree searches
- Workflow: Read and write Excel files, layer management, and automate baking and saving.
As of V2 LunchBox’s Machine learning tools are now located under a new LunchBoxML tab in Grasshopper and includes:
- NEW Microsoft ML.NET trainers, algorithms, and tester components
- Data management components for preparing training data
- Legacy Accord.NET trainers and testers
I hope the tool is as helpful to you as it is to me in the design process!
To install:
- Run the “PackageManager” command in Rhino 7 or 8
- Search for LunchBox and install
- Alternative (older) downloads are available below.
Requirements:
- Rhinoceros 7 or 8 with Grasshopper
- Windows
* Nominal testing has been performed on Rhino 8 for Mac. The latest version of LunchBox is built against .NET 7 and can be installed on Mac through the Package manager. Note that some components may not function if they are using Windows-specific functionality.
