VR Paint

What is it?

The app would be a photoshop/adobe XD like app but will be accessed through a VR headset and Leap Motion. It allows users to edit pictures and design apps using their hands to move, resize, and edit different aspects of an image or app workflow. To use the app the user would need a Leap Motion ($85) and either google cardboard ($7-$50) or Samsung Gear VR ($50). The Leap Motion would track the users hand and arm movements and allow them to control their design with their hands. The app could be used in school art classes as a new medium for creating artwork. It would provide a more active and immersive experience for students. Also with using more cost friendly solutions to create the app it wouldn’t be out of the questions to get multiple stations. It is also much for cost friendly for at home user. Potentially we could make it so their could be multiple users could work on the same photo or app flow.
