  • Simulating painting
    Patent number: 9030464
    Abstract: A paint simulation system described herein includes a brush component that outputs a three-dimensional computer-implemented model of an image editing tool. A paint component receives the three-dimensional computer-implemented model and generates a two-dimensional map corresponding to a footprint of the three-dimensional model with respect to a computer-implemented canvas, wherein resolution of the two-dimensional map is substantially similar to resolution of a paint map of the computer-implemented canvas.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 8, 2010
    Date of Patent: May 12, 2015
    Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC
