Its key advantage is requiring the user to have neither deep knowledge of a particular drawing software nor any advanced drawing skills. In practice, however, all these skills become necessary to improve the visual fidelity of the resulting drawing. In this paper, we present ShipShape-a general beautification assistant that allows users to maintain the simplicity and speed of freehand sketching while still taking into account implicit geometric relations to automatically rectify the output image. In contrast to previous approaches ShipShape works with general Bézier curves, enables undo/redo operations, is scale independent, and is fully integrated into Adobe Illustrator. We demonstrate various results to demonstrate capabilities of the proposed method.I.3.4 [Computer Graphics]Graphics UtilitiesPaint systemsI.3.3 [Computer Graphics]Picture/Image GenerationLine and curve generationI.3.6 [Computer Graphics]Methodology and TechniquesInteraction techniquesI.4.3 [Image Processing and Computer Vision]EnhancementGeometric correction H.5.2 [User Interfaces]Input devices and strategiesShipShape: A Drawing Beautification Assistant10.2312/exp.2015117849-57
