Title: "symSpline: Symmetric Two-Handed Spline Manipulation"
Abstract:
I will introduce symSpline: a symmetric, dual-mouse technique for the manipulation of spline curves that was developed with the assistance of Prof. Stephen Mann. In symSpline, two cursors control the positions of the ends of the tangent to an edit point. By moving the tangent with both mice, the tangent and the edit point can be translated while the curvature of the spline is adjusted simultaneously, according to the length and angle of the tangent. I will discuss an experiment that was conducted to compare the symSpline technique to two asymmetric dual-mouse spline manipulation techniques and to a standard single-mouse technique.
