Does anyone have recommendations/resources (blogs, papers, implementations, etc.) on rendering hand drawn curves? Currently I'm just going from a raw list of cursor positions to a simplified list of Bezier curves using Schnieder's algorithm. I want to try using pressure/tilt values from a cheap drawing tablet to draw more "natural" curves, but I don't currently have the vocabulary to find what work has been done in this area. Also interested in any adjacent UX ideas for this type of interaction :)

Definitely check out Steve Ruiz's

@Christopher Shank thanks! This led me to https://microbians.com/math/Gabriel_Suchowolski_Quadratic_bezier_offsetting_with_selective_subdivision.pdf, which Steve mentioned as a resource he used. This definitely gives me enough to go one

Doing subdivision over a set of points, then plotting curves along those points is my standard method for this 👍🏻

Hobby curves look really nice for simple curve manipulation! (found a nice live demo from Jake Low) I'll have to keep that in mind if I end up wanting to manipulate the curves after drawing
