GesMoSketch: A System for 3D Sketching in AR with One Mobile Device

We present a novel approach for 3D sketching in Augmented Reality (AR). Unlike most existing methods that rely on positioning devices or algorithms, our approach only needs a mobile device to realize 3D sketching in AR scenes. The drawing process is transformed into the process of building blocks, which is intuitive and fun. The user draws directly on the device screen, but the drawing content can be placed anywhere in real space with the help of the planar surface proxy. The advantages of this method are not only low dependence on hardware but also a more natural drawing process and less fatigue. Gesture-based proxy plane manipulations are also very intuitive. A pilot study with 12 participants demonstrates the effectiveness and expressiveness of the approach.
