A discovery on creativity delivery tools – from the needs of hybrid-using 3D modeling software

Abstract

Hybrid using 3D model-building software is a popular situation in product design to delivery creative ideas. Less research on challenges and expected functions in hybrid-use modeling software triggers this study which aims to gather an in-depth understanding of the hybrid-use modeling software user experience. Semi-structured interviews were used to report the using experience. The paper analyses the interview from intelligence, expected function, hybrid using experience, and expected software. It shows that participants expect automatically saving and recording process functions. Also, the traditional modeling building software has high developing potential on shortcut key plug-in. Suggestions were promoted to make more effective modeling software. This research is a former step to inspire thinking on how to improve the collaboration among different 3D modeling software.
