Publication number: 20230351652Abstract: Vector format based computer graphics tools have become very powerful tools allowing artists, designers etc. to mimic many artistic styles, exploit automated techniques, etc. and across different simulated physical media and digital media. However, hand-drawing and sketching in vector format graphics is unnatural and a user's strokes rendered by software are generally unnatural and appear artificial. In contrast to today's hand-drawing and sketching which requires significant training of and understanding by the user of complex vector graphics methods embodiments of the invention lower the barrier to accessing computer graphics applications for users in respect of making hand-drawing or sketching easier to perform. Accordingly, the inventors have established a direct vector-based hand-drawing/sketching entry format supporting any input methodology.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2023Publication date: November 2, 2023Inventors: TONY SEVERENUK, PAUL LEGOMSKI, TEKIN OZBEK, THOMAS JACKSON, BOBAN BOGDANIC, ANDREW STACEY

Patent number: 7515752Abstract: A drawing assistance system enhances a sketch drawn by a user in an electrical document on a computer system by collecting stroke data from one or more strokes of a sketch as a user draws the sketch. The stroke data includes time-based information and features of each stroke. The strokes are handled based on the time-based information, and analysed based on the strokes handled based on the time-based information. The sketch is enhanced based on results of the analysis.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2004Date of Patent: April 7, 2009Assignee: Corel CorporationInventors: Christopher Jason Tremblay, Pascal Bécheiraz, Rick Charles Champagne, Valentin Ivanov, Daniel Jetté, Paul Legomski, Shawn Lipstein, Vladimir Makarov
