ABSTRACT
A system for spatial drawing must have a display device that shows stereoscopic images to the user, a controller serving as a brush for drawing, and a function that creates a line and a curved surface and visualizes the virtual space. Herein, a software framework was designed for spatial drawing by analyzing the functions for spatial drawing applications in a virtual environment based on existing studies and produced a virtual reality spatial drawing application with virtual drawing tools. The application employed a traditional painting metaphor. Furthermore, a brush module and a palette module were designed for the spatial drawing interface and linked to the line and surface generator modules to change drawing attributes, e.g., color and texture.
