Abstract :
This poster presents results of our investigations into using Spatial Augmented Reality (SAR) to improve kitchen design and other interior architecture tasks. We present new user interface techniques for room sized modeling tasks, including cabinet layout, viewing and modifying preset designs, and modifying finishes. These tools and techniques address key user interface issues for spatial augmented reality systems, and we discuss how they can be generalized for other applications. The techniques have been developed in the context of a demonstration application, PimpMyKitchen, which allows architects to design kitchens, working with clients in an interactive SAR environment.
