Knowledge Base Repository

In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
Mixed reality assistance guide posture and hand positioning, and familiarize material behaviour within craft prototyping. The development of the resulting framework focuses on non-intrusive assistance. Barriers include reduced immersion, observing precise hand movements, limited spatial interpretation, and understanding material behaviour. A 3D animation prototype, with roots in embodied knowledge, intends to improve spatial comprehension and enhance process and material understanding. The eventual framework should aid virtual assistance for design skill transfer.
