A 3D sketching system is presented for transforming an ideation to an actual CAD model using Human Computer Interaction (HCI). The system uses a Leap motion controller to capture human gestures, and translated them by a recognition model. The pinch and pull gestures are used to represent actions for flexible manipulations on control points coordinates of NURBS surfaces. The continuous motion of the designers hands is converted to morphological/geometrical and mathematical values. Both cases of single and dual hands are developed, offering the designer a variety of resolution tools to convey their ideas and creativity.
