Are you an “artist” who likes to wear all black, and because of being so spiritual/misunderstood/poor refuses to go to normal store to buy furniture? You might want to check out the Sketch Furniture Project by FRONT.

Using motion capture, a computer records your pen strokes and places them real-time within the scene. This motion capture is finalized as a 3D image file and then sent through the Rapid Protyping process. A laser hardens liquid plastic 0.1mm at a time, and in a few hours you have a chair that will shock/impress/probably kill your friends. Awesome. Hit the jump for pictures and a video of the entire process. And maybe some brilliant commenter can explain to us why the girl on the right draws slower than her sketch appears…maybe the motion cap is feeding faster than the video? Thanks Mr. JustElite!
