We propose DeepHand to estimate the 3D pose of a hand using depth data from commercial 3D sensors. We discriminatively train convolutional neural networks to output a low dimensional activation feature given a depth map. This activation feature...
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies have become integral to the modern manufacturing process. These roles are filled both in prototyping and production. Many studies have been conducted and lists been written on guidelines for AM....
We present RealFusion, an interactive workflow that supports early stage design ideation in a digital 3D medium. RealFusion is inspired by the practice of found-object-art, wherein new representations are created by composing existing objects. The...
As pervasive computing is widely available during daily activities, wearable input devices which promote an eyes-free interaction are needed for easy access and safety. We propose a textile wearable device which enables a multimodal sensing input...
A flattenable mesh surface is a polygonal mesh surface that can be unfolded into a planar patch without stretching any polygon. This paper presents a new method for computing a slightly stretched flattenable mesh surface M from a piecewise-linear...
We introduce Cubimorph, a modular interactive device that accommodates touchscreens on each of the six module faces, and that uses a hinge-mounted turntable mechanism to self-reconfigure in the user's hand. Cubimorph contributes toward the vision...
Abstract: We present TMotion, a self-contained 3D input that enables spatial interactions around mobile device using a magnetic sensing technique. We embed a permanent magnet and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) in a stylus. When the stylus moves...
In this paper, we explore quick 3D shape composition during early-phase spatial design ideation. Our approach is to re-purpose a smartphone as a hand-held reference plane for creating, modifying, and manipulating 3D sweep surfaces. We implemented...
