Window-Shaping

Summary

Researchers at Purdue University have developed a technology that focuses on creating a mixed reality environment for quick 3D shape design where users can repurpose the physical environment as a reference, context, and source of inspiration. This technology presents a new interaction metaphor wherein a new virtual 3D object is created as an extension of its physical context without the need for reconstructing the 3D model of the physical scene. This technology allows users to create and visualize 3D shapes directly on the surface of any object with the desired dimensions and locations. Mapping the background texture of the users' sketch inputs, allows users to repurpose existing textures in new creations.
