🚨 #UIST2024 Paper: SHAPE-IT🪄 SHAPE-IT enables users to freely 'tell' the shape display to transform by only giving text instructions using LLMs. It offers an experience like that Sci-Fi Clay that can shape-shift whatever you say it to be✨🪄 AxLab - Actuated Experience Lab The University of Chicago →🧵
