Could AI-assisted hardware design make it easier for a small team to turn an idea into a physical product? Two employees developed the design with Astra in under a week, and a manufacturer built prototypes in under a month. We explore what the AI contributed, from selecting electronic components and designing a PCB to generating firmware and connecting the device to Codex. We also look at Codex working with editable CAD models, Mazda’s research into AI-assisted vehicle design and airflow simulation, and a hobbyist who used Codex and KiCad to develop electronics for Halloween props. Together, these examples show how AI could help builders work across software, electronics and mechanical design, while engineers and manufacturers turn those designs into something they can test.
