I plan to create a digital prototype for my robot by using Autodesk Inventor. Does anybody know where can I get the 3D modeling files of the Arduino hardwares (http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Hardware) ? It will save me lots of time if I can import them into my project.
I'm pretty sure somebody posted a STEP file of a UNO a while back, but I can't find it (just try searching for STEP UNO on the forum and see what you get. Why is the search facility so brain dead) so I did some Googling and found this
You have to register.
I just downloaded the STEP model, it's a bit crude but should be good for getting your mechanicals right, just apply a sanity test before you trust it.
