Raymond Pai – Project-12-Proposal

For my final project, I would like to create a growing-plant drawing experience. It should predict the user’s next steps using their previous steps and randomly and gradually grow plant parts out of their strokes. It should also use inputs from the environment such as sound and light to change the ‘mood’ of the drawing. If possible, I want the drawing to appear three-dimensional. To push this further, I want the stroke to draw based on how the user moves their hand in front of the computer camera. For example, a simple finger-pointed movement in front of the camera would create a stroke, which the software would slowly ‘grow’ the branches and flowers from the stroke the user drew:
