Users interact with the immersive virtual environment through a handheld wand and voice recognition. There are two unique states of manipulation: sculpt mode and world mode. In sculpt mode, the user creates, modifies and paints volumetric material using a minimalist control scheme. In world mode, the user positions and resizes his or her detailed volumetric models to design a large-scale scene. Ultimately, SculptUp\u2019s interface substantially expedites the creative process and catalyzes rapid scene prototyping.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/57640331\" width=\"584\" height=\"329\" frameborder=\"0\" title=\"SculptUp: A Rapid, Immersive 3D Modeling Environment (The Final Cut)\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This site is meant to document the projects of students working in independent studies under the mentorship of\u00a0Professor Kevin Ponto. \u00a0More information will be coming shortly.
