Claymore: augmented direct manipulation of three-dimensional objects

H. Mitsunobu, Takashi Oshiba, Jiro Tanaka · 2002

The paper describes a method for manipulating a three dimensional object without considering conventional three independent orthogonal views. We apply the direct manipulation to operate the three dimensional object. We propose "augmented manipulation" which is an enhanced direct manipulation technique by using additional information. We implement three dimensional modeling tool "Claymore " by using the "augmented manipulation" technique. Users can construct three dimensional models in an intuitive manner. "Claymore " and the examples described in the paper are fully implemented and can be obtained via WWW.
