Multitouch Interface Metaphors for 3D Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the past many researchers and companies have focused on mastering different multitouch interface technologies, yet there are currently still only few applications that are truly using the full capabilities of multitouch. In this paper we describe our vision for new multitouch interaction metaphors based on finger and hand gestures especially suited for 3d conceptual modeling and show some ideas about the context in which such a multitouch system could be useful.

متن کاملInteraction Metaphors for Modeling Virtual Hair using Haptic Interfaces
Shaping realistic hairstyles for digital characters is a difficult, long and tedious task. The lack of appropriate interaction metaphors enabling efficient and simple, yet accurate hair modeling further aggravates the situation. This paper presents 3D interaction metaphors for modeling virtual hair using haptic interfaces. We discuss user tasks, ergonomic aspects, as well as haptics-based styli...
متن کاملA 3D XML-Based Visualization Framework for Dynamic Models
There are numerous forms for dynamic models, which specify how an object or scene behaves over time. Discrete state automata, Petri nets, and data flow graphs are only a small sample of model types available, which aid modelers in capturing dynamics. Whereas most modeling frameworks employ rigidly defined textual or 2D symbols for representing such abstract entities such as state, event, and fu...
متن کاملMultitouch Gestures for Constrained Transformation of 3D Objects
3D transformation widgets allow constrained manipulations of 3D objects and are commonly used in many 3D applications for fine-grained manipulations. Since traditional transformation widgets have been mainly designed for mouse-based systems, they are not user friendly for multitouch screens. There is little research on how to use the extra input bandwidth of multitouch screens to ease constrain...
