Painting with patterns
I/O Brush looks like a regular physical paintbrush but has a small video camera with lights and touch sensors embedded inside. Outside of the drawing canvas, the brush can pick up color, texture, and movement of a brushed surface. On the canvas, artists can draw with the special “ink” they just picked up from their immediate environment. If you visit this site, don’t miss the entertaining video. If you’ve seen it you begin to understand the concept. Link
