Abstract
The "Body-Brush" is a genuine merge of art and the technology of computer vision. It creates a human-computer interface that transforms human body gesture into 3-D paintings in real-time. The idea was inspired by the "action painting" of Jackson Pollock. The interface consists of a novel body motion capturing and analyzing system and output a virtual canvas space that is filled with virtual 3-D colour-path-brushstrokes as a result of the painter's motion within the 3-D canvas.

Applications
• a new painting and sculpting tool for professional and amateur artists
• psychotherapy and rehabilitation

簡介
「軀體畫筆」乃是美學與科技交接的介面，其創作意念來自世界著名藝術家傑克森﹒帕洛克(Jackson Pollock)的「行動繪畫」(Action Painting)藝術。用者透過身體動作，可在虛擬的三維空間畫布上，創作出實時的立體三維繪畫。「軀體畫筆」中的虛擬三維畫布包括兩台紅外線攝錄機及一組紅外線光源，用於捕捉「畫家」的身體動態。

應用
• 另類的繪畫及雕塑藝術
• 心理治療及康復
