Originally, pre-digital Camera Lucida was a 19th-century optical drawing aid that uses a prism or mirror to superimpose a "ghosted" image of a subject onto a drawing surface. It enables artists to accurately trace scenes, portraits, and still lifes, improving perspective and proportion. This iOS based Camera Lucida uses Augmented Reality to overlay images on surfaces for intuitive artistic endeavors. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Prompt-Brush is the first non-AI generative art model — and the model is you. Here's how it works: someone writes a prompt. Someone else draws it, by hand, in black ink on paper. No filters, no generators, no algorithms guessing what a cat astronaut should look like. Just a person, a prompt, and a brush. Open the app to a gallery of drawings made entirely by people — thousands of them, each answering a prompt in a completely different way. Find one you like. Then pick an open prompt and draw your own. — DRAW BY HAND — A single ink brush on warm paper. On iPad, the Apple Pencil is pressure-sensitive: press harder for a thicker line, ease off for a fine one. Prefer fixed sizes, or drawing with a finger? Turn pressure off with a tap. — A REAL COMMUNITY — Leave a mark on drawings you love. Follow artists. Every prompt can only be drawn once, so each one is somebody's single answer to it. Browse by prompt, by artist, or just wander. — MADE BY PEOPLE, KEPT KIND — Everything is hand-drawn and human-moderated. There's a zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content, every drawing is reviewed before it appears, and you can report or block anyone in a tap. No AI. No stock. No shortcuts. Just the oldest generative model there is — a person deciding what to draw. Draw the prompts by hand at prompt-brush.com
