Gestural Drawing Prototype



This working-prototype explores a gestural radial menu within the context of a drawing application. It was inspried (partially) by the irritation of constantly tool-switching in Paper by 53 and also by some of the reasons further elaborated in my research section.

Menu options in Version 1
  • Undo
  • Clear All
  • Canvas Colour Grey Scale
  • Pen Colour Hue
  • Pen Colour Saturation
  • Pen Colour Brightness

Glider: Tangible Drawing Interface



This project was built for CMU's annual Build18 Hackathon in January 2018.
