  Structuring and rearranging free-hand sketches on large interactive surfaces typically requires making multiple stroke selections. Without well-designed selection tools, this can be both time-consuming and fatiguing. Investigating the concept of automated clustering, we conducted a background study to understand the varying perspectives of how elements in sketches can be grouped. In response to these…

Catch-up 360 – Digital Benefits for Physical Artifacts

In the IdeaGarden project we aim to develop tools to support designer. Catch-Up 360 is an attempt to provide digital benefits to physical artifacts. Especially large design companies, such as LEGO®, have offices at different locations and while sharing digital data works smooth, exchanging physical mockups is quite difficult and cumbersome. Producing digital blueprints to…

Idea Archipelago

Idea Archipelago allows users to collect, organize, and share all project related information assets. It can be defined as a project management tool that helps organizing data. The prototype introduces a novel visualization, designed for direct pen-based interaction on digital whiteboards, with the purpose of supporting long-term design projects. Our design has been guided by…
