Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media for stereo drawing that enable the creation of stereoscopic image pairs. A stereo drawing system may present 3D shape(s) via a user interface (UI). The user can position and rotate a 3D shape, for example via direct manipulation technology such as motion tracking technology. A drawing surface may be mapped to an input device via which input strokes may be applied to the surface. The input strokes are mapped locally onto the surface, thereby allowing the user to draw onto a well-defined shape in 3D space. The stereo drawing system maps what is drawn onto the drawing surface; the geometry of the drawing surface provides depth information so that stereoscopic image pairs can be automatically generated.
