Feather: 3D sketchbook light as a feather

Abstract

We present Feather, a 3D drawing system that allows users to create 3D curve artworks with a pen & touch interface on a tablet. We implemented multi-view 3D sketching by applying a concept of drawing & bending a “3D guide” and a view-oriented joystick widget that streamlines tedious 3D transformations—all of which are integrated into a single web application while maintaining the usability and look of conventional 2D drawing software.
