Educational software for teaching drawing-based conceptual design skills

摘要

An education-oriented computer application to draw sketches of polyhedrons that are automatically recognized to reconstructs the suitable three-dimensional (3D) models is presented. The users can modify the sketches and see the reaction their modifications have on the models. Earliest classroom tests show that the capacity for spatial vision is improved.
