HandSCAPE is a vectorizing digital tape measure
as an input device for digitizing field measurements, and visualizing the volume
of the resulting vectors with computer graphics. Using embedded orientation-sensing
hardware, HandSCAPE captures relevant vectors on each linear measurements and
transmits this data wirelessly to a remote computer in real-time. Combining physical
measuring and computer modeling as a seamless step enhances the efficiency of
on-site measuring tasks with the addition of digital functionality.
The potential utility of HandSCAPE is for on-site measuring application areas
such as archeological surveys, interior design, and storage space allocation.
Thus, HandSCAPE is a tangible interface that provides seamless relationships between
digital and physical space, and preserves human senses and skills.
