Immersive 3D Sketching by Tianyi Xiao

Welcome to the Zürich AR/VR/Spatial Computing Group.

Tonight, we are joined by Tianyi Xiao, a fourth-year PhD candidate at ETH Zürich’s geoGAZElab.

Tianyi develops XR-based immersive 3D sketching interfaces that serve as both creative instruments for architectural design and tools for investigating human spatial cognition. His research, frequently featured at the prestigious ACM CHI conference, explores how generative AI can create seamless sketch-to-model pipelines.
Key projects include Sketch2Terrain, an AI-driven system that allows non-experts to create to sketch accurate maps of natural landscapes in Augmented Reality, as well as Sketch2Model, a creative tool that enables the conversion from 3d sketches into 3D furniture in Extended Reality.

Following the talk, we are going to have a hands-on session to try the Sketch2Model tool.

This event:
19:30 Opening of door Z0.03
20:00 Main talk: Immersive 3D Sketching by Tianyi Xiao
20:30 hands-on session to try the Sketch2Model tool.

The Institute of Media Production of the University of Applied Sciences of the Grisons (FH Graubünden) kindly supports this event and is happy to welcome all of you.

EXTRA MESSAGE: Please get in contact, if you have a topic you want to share at one of the meetup events.
