CATIA V5 is primarily a 3D CAD software used for creating and manipulating 3D models of parts and assemblies. However, it also has features that allow designers to work with 2D drawings.
The software provides a drafting module that allows designers to create 2D drawings of the 3D models they create in the software. The drafting module includes tools for creating various types of views such as isometric, section, and detailed views. It also provides tools for adding dimensions, annotations, and symbols to the drawings.
Additionally, the software provides tools for importing and exporting 2D drawing files in various formats such as DXF, DWG, and IGES. This allows designers to work with 2D drawings created in other software and to share their 2D drawings with others who may not have access to CATIA V5.
However, it is important to note that CATIA V5's primary strength lies in its 3D modeling capabilities. While it does provide tools for working with 2D drawings, other software specifically designed for 2D drafting may be more suitable for certain types of projects that require a greater focus on 2D drawings.

Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that allows users to experience a computer-generated 3D environment as if they were present within it. In the context of design offices, VR can be used to enhance the design process by providing designers with an immersive, interactive, and collaborative environment in which to view and evaluate their designs.
