“Adjusting the plane in which you sketch, you give volume to your creation,” London-based Oluwaseyi Sosanya from Sosa designs explains on his website. “The augmented reality glasses let you and your collaborators see what you are creating.”
CAD remains a leading tool in 3-D content generation, but only generates perfect shapes. No room for imperfections, meaning imagination loss.
“This is where imagination is defeated,” Sosanya. “There is much lost in the process of moving from 2-D to 3-D.”
Team: Guillaume Couche, Daniela Paredes Fuentes, Pierre Paslier, Oluwaseyi Sosanya.
