Could you build this?
Partial A web interface with file preview is easily vibe-coded, but accurately vectorizing hand sketches, photos, or raster PDFs into dimensionally accurate, CAD-ready DXF and SVG geometry requires advanced computer vision and vectorization algorithms.
What it would actually take: The backend needs a pipeline combining image preprocessing (perspective correction, thresholding, edge filtering) with vectorization algorithms (like Potrace or deep learning line/arc detection) and CAD entity generation via libraries like ezdxf. The difficult part is distinguishing nominal dimensions, closed contour boundaries, and true-scale scaling from noisy raster input. It requires computer vision engineering, computational geometry, and CAD standard (DXF/STEP) expertise.
