Real World 3d interface

News & General Discussion

Has anybody ever seen or heard of an interface for 3d modeling other than a trackpad or a mouse and keyboard? I was thinking it would be cool to have some sort of clay-like stuff that had vertices in it which were sensors that knew their position. or maybe just gloves… or something. I realize an interface like this might be worse for experienced modelers who know all the hotkeys and have a personalized interface… but a mouse and keyboard create a high learning curve, it would be cool to see other interfaces.

I couldn’t find much on google, wanted to hear what you guys had to say

awesome thank you. I’d seen the 3dconnexion before but the sensable stuff I hadn’t
