Reaching

A research question asked out loud: does the intuition of drawing in mid-air survive the removal of the VR headset? One hand chooses, the other makes. A thumb and an index finger together commit a curve into empty space. The whole instrument is a single HTML file and your webcam. Not CAD. Not a tool yet. A question with curves attached.
