PintAR: Sketching Spatial Experiences in Augmented Reality

Abstract

In this demo, we present PintAR: an interactive prototyping tool that explores Augmented Reality for the design of interactive spatial experiences. Our system aims to remedy the lack of tools for rapid-prototyping situated experiences in AR without programming or 3D modeling. PintAR combines a digital paper and pen interface with a head-mounted display to allow users to sketch and interact with digital content in their environment. Users can take PintAR anywhere, leveraging objects and information available in the real world to bring context to their prototypes.
