With the development of computing power more and more attention is paid to the computer-aided design and automation. Imaging system for the initial, intermediate and resulting data is an integral part of software packages CAD. Development and quality of imaging systems is important, because the result of data analysis and the result of design in general depends on accuracy and clarity of data presentation. One of the necessary features for a new generation of imaging systems in the complex computer-aided design is the presence of three-dimensional representation of objects. Another such feature is the use of cognitive graphics to represent any information being analyzed. The concept of cognition includes the collection of techniques and methods for pictorial representation of information that allows during the analysis immediately see the solution or get help to find it. These techniques and methods are opted to use an alternative to the logic - an intuitive mechanism of the mind. A good example of the potential of such imaging systems and cognitive graphics in general is a qualitative difference in the level of analysis of huge matrices of the antenna patterns in various views, including those with cognitive graphics, while above features are implemented in imaging system.
