Highlights of the Year

Our work on sketch-based modeling for product designers (Sec. 6.4.4 ) has received significant attention. It appeared on the news page of University of British Columbia http://news.ubc.ca/2014/08/13/powerful-math-creates-3-d-shapes-from-simple-sketches/ and our video has been watched more than 7000 times on Youtube http://youtu.be/tbUljHJv4Rg . We filed a patent on this technology and we have contacts with several companies about a potential transfer.
