The Simulation of the Brush Stroke Based on Force Feedback Technology

الملخص EN

A novel simulation method of the brush stroke is proposed by applying force feedback technology to the virtual painting process.

The relationship between force and the brush deformation is analyzed, and the spring-mass model is applied to construct the brush model, which can realistically simulate the brush morphological changes according to the force exerted on it.

According to the deformation of the brush model at a sampling point, the brush footprint between the brush and the paper is calculated in real time.

Then, the brush stroke is obtained by superimposing brush footprints along sampling points, and the dynamic painting of the brush stroke is implemented.

The proposed method has been successfully applied to the virtual painting system based on the force feedback technology.

In this system, users can implement the painting in real time with a Phantom Desktop haptic device, which can effectively enhance reality to users.
