Abstract

Constructing by sketching … that is the motto of sketchometry. You draw with your finger on a smartphone or tablet screen. sketchometry converts your sketches into geometric constructions, that can be dragged and manipulated. So, sketchometry is a dynamic geometry software with a gesture based user interface. It is the ideal tool for exploring mathematics at school and at home.

The foundation of sketchometry is the JSXGraph library and it is also developed at the University of Bayreuth.
