A Study of Dynamic Sculpture Prototyping Tools

s. With the development of computer-aided design technology, more and more designers and artists have created installation art full of dynamic beauty to enrich the urban landscape, such as dynamic sculpture. This kind of dynamic sculpture needs to spend a lot of time and energy of the producer to produce digital models and product animation. This results in the artists not being able to utilize their creativity well. In order to propose an effective auxiliary design tool to reduce the artist’s workload, this study first conducts a literature review on related theories and proposes a design method based on constrained morphology through curves. Based on this method, a complete design process was designed and a browser-based design tool, KINETICIST, was developed. Finally, user experiments were conducted in this study. The result proves that KINETICIST has qualified user experience performance under the dimensions of effectiveness, ease of interaction, and ease of learning, and has practical value.
