Touch Object In The Computer With Your Own Hand



To make an object 3D which is realistic and complex, we needed computer with adequate equipment. Unhappily to in this time device of input like and keyboard of mouse cannot facilitate graphical designer to make object wanted. For the menanipulation of surface of object required direct touch to make more object perfection.



Virtual Reality Laboratory property of The State University Of New York in Buffalo, have found an appliance which can make people likely - processing to touch object which there is in computer. This appliance enable designer to touch, to pushing, moving object in computer by using finger, same as in real world.



This appliance work caught action of finger including finger position and pressure. Input apparatus of provided with censor to know movement of designer. To facilitate this appliance designer is equipped more than one appliance for design an object. There is three especial appliance that is Normal, Fine Carving, and Large Area.



Supporter Software used for this appliance is made with language of C++, while Graphical User Interface ( GUI) made with C++ in Open GL use GLUI libraries. GUI will represented action and position designer. Surface of object will be updated continue - continuously.



There is three component to make Touch-Based Interactive NURBS Modeler, that is computer, hand broom which have provided with censor to detect movement, solid goods having the character of loamy, as model object. A fingertip will represented it as a means of which is movement in computer.



For the usage of this appliance is easy enough, user only require to wear gauntlet, then the fingertip move at object which have given by censor. Every movement, pressure will represented by computer.



Touch-Based Interactive NURBS Modeler will use full to all designer which wish made more realistic object. Designer can interact directly with object which is him making. Designer also able to manipulated softer and detail, what cannot be done by and mouse of keyboard.



To in this time Touch-Based Interactive NURBS Modeler still has some insuffiencies among others is object which still limited to object in form of leveling off as well as limitation of appliance to design an object. To the future Touch-Based Interactive NURBS Modeler shall have to improve, so scheme of object can realistic and easier.
