Virtual Reality Sketches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Google's Virtual Reality App 'Tilt Brush' Creates 3D Sketches

— May 10, 2016 — Art & Design
Google's new virtual reality painting app 'Tilt brush' allows users to sketch their drawings and designs in 3D.

The app is available on the HTC Vive and works with a controller that the user can "paint" with and features include a virtual color palette. The app will allow for the painter, designer, architect or visualizer to physically walk through their designs. This could exponentially improve productivity and visualization when it comes to designing anything from products to buildings. Theoretically, the Tilt brush could allow users to cut down on the time needed to develop and plan their real-world designs.

The interactive aspect of the app is especially unique, as most methods of painting, sculpting and design do not allow the creator to be as physically immersed as this app allows.
Trend Themes
1. Virtual Reality Sketching - Virtual reality art and design tools like 'Tilt Brush' offer new opportunities for immersive and interactive creative experiences.
2. Enhanced Visualization - The ability to physically walk through designs in virtual reality can revolutionize the way products, buildings, and other physical objects are visualized and planned.
3. Increased Productivity - Virtual reality sketching tools have the potential to streamline the design process, saving time and improving efficiency for artists, designers, architects, and visualizers.
Industry Implications
1. Art and Design - Virtual reality sketching can disrupt the art and design industry by providing new creative tools and immersive experiences for artists, designers, and visualizers.
2. Architecture - Virtual reality sketching can transform the architecture industry by offering architects a new way to visualize and explore designs, leading to more efficient planning and communication.
3. Product Design - The use of virtual reality sketching tools in product design can revolutionize the prototyping process, enabling faster iterations and more realistic visualization of product concepts.
