IF WE LEVERAGE THE SIMPLICITY OF VR, CAN ANYONE SKETCH IDEAS AND BRING THEM TO LIFE ?
Behind all successful products lie brilliant ideas. But in today’s age of experience, those brilliant ideas are no longer exclusive to domain experts. The users of those future experiences, any inhabitant of our planet, can imagine sustainable innovations. The actual challenge is to find the appropriate means to empower anyone with creative solutions.
We present here how we discovered the first set of answers combining technology and methodology, based on 2 generations of VR 3D sketching experiences.
