Computing with Clay:

 

I am interested in ways to interface a material like clay as a computational tool for modelling and navigating 3D virtual spaces. I am also thinking about tangible interfaces in relation to Augmented reality and using a haptic mapping to contribute to an augmentation. I am thinking of this as an augmentation process as well as an interface. Methods to compute the volume of the clay include potentially the following: maybe magnetic fields/magnets, capacitive/proximity sensing, computer vision or depth imaging using infrared.
