3D sketch: Sketch-based model reconstruction and rendering

We propose a new modeling and rendering system that enables users to construct 3D models with an interface that seems no different from sketching by hand, and that displays models in a sketch-like style, preserving the features of the user's strokes. We call this system 3D SKETCH. To reconstruct 3D objects from sketches, we limit the domain of renderable sketches and prepare a template for interpreting sketches. As long as a sketch can be matched to such a template, the system can reconstruct a mesh model from the sketch. The system collects information about strokes made, and uses that information for our rendering scheme.
