I love doodling and sketching things. Especially I like three-dimensional perspective drawings such as skyscrapers and big mechanical objects. I love the feeling of creating a world of illusion on two-dimensional paper.
Now with AR/VR/MR devices, the drawing experience is being changed dramatically. Since you can literally draw in 3D space, you don’t have to create the ‘illusion’ because it is a real 3D drawing. You just need to think a little bit about how to express volumetric objects in space with dots, lines, and surfaces.
Recently, I spent some time with Tilt Brush on a VR device, and sketched a battle scene from Star Wars with various types of spaceships that I love — Star Destroyer, X-Wing, TIE Fighter… I have been drawing these spaceships a lot on 2D paper but being able to draw three-dimensionally in space gives me a whole different way of thinking and perspective. In near future, I can imagine the drawing foundation classes in art schools teaching how to sketch in three-dimensional canvas using AR/VR/MR devices. It is a truly exciting moment to explore the new canvas.
Enjoy!
*All drawings are from my memory. Obviously, I have been playing X-Wing and TIE Fighter games too much when I was a kid 😀

How AI Is Empowering Designers in Spatial Computing
AI has already created tremendous opportunities for designers working on traditional 2D applications and services. But what has excited me even more is how AI is fundamentally changing the way we design spatial computing experiences. The reason is simple: Spatial computing has always had a much higher barrier to entry. Unlike traditional 2D interaction design,…
