...and I just spent $9,000 for a Freeform haptic pen since this concept so far lacks an additional element of feedback that doesn't necessarily need to be a force. But the haptic pressure feedback as often just *fights* what I want to do instead of helps and at times feels like more of a boutique feature rather than something essential. It's not as claimed that it emulates working with clay by hand as if you can really feel the model and that's because it's a mere tipped stylus that only has feedback in XYZ but no rotational resistance as you angle any shaped stylus tool tip around or rotate it. And all that haptic work slows the interface way down even with the best PC upgrades money will buy. Save me, Rhino!
What a great framework! I was having the same sort of vision upon seeing the Leap for the first time. Good on you for taking action! I'd love to give it a try..
