Abstract
A computer-implemented method for selecting an edge among edges of a 3D object in a 3D immersive environment of a CAD system. Each edge is oriented in the 3D immersive environment. The method comprises displaying the 3D object in the 3D immersive environment, detecting a hand gesture including all fingers folded except thumb, determining an oriented line formed with the folded fingers of the hand in the 3D immersive environment, and identifying the edge of the 3D object having the closest orientation with the oriented line.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for selecting an edge among edges of a 3D object in a 3D immersive environment of a CAD system, each edge being oriented in the 3D immersive environment, comprising:
- displaying the 3D object in the 3D immersive environment;
- detecting a hand gesture including all fingers of a hand folded except thumb;
- determining an oriented line formed with the folded fingers of the hand in the 3D immersive environment;
- and
- identifying the edge of the 3D object having a closest orientation with the oriented line.
A non-transitory data storage medium having recorded thereon a computer program including instructions that when executed by a computer causes the computer to perform a method for selecting an edge among edges of a 3D object in a 3D immersive environment of a CAD system, each edge being oriented in the 3D immersive environment, the method comprising:
- displaying the 3D object in the 3D immersive environment;
- detecting a hand gesture including all fingers of a hand folded except thumb;
- determining an oriented line formed with the folded fingers of the hand in the 3D immersive environment;
- and
- identifying the edge of the 3D object having a closest orientation with the oriented line.
A system comprising:
- a display;
- and
- a processing circuitry communicatively coupled with a memory, the memory storing a computer program for selecting an edge among edges of a 3D object in a 3D immersive environment of a CAD system, each edge being oriented in the 3D immersive environment, that when executed by the processing circuitry causes the processing circuitry to be configured to:
- display the 3D object in the 3D immersive environment,
- detect a hand gesture including all fingers of a hand folded except thumb, determine an oriented line formed with the folded fingers of the hand in the 3D immersive environment, and
- identify the edge of the 3D object having a closest orientation with the oriented line.
