Holocloth: The Fabric That Renders Itself

Holocloth is a web-based project that explores the concept of a fabric that can display dynamic images and patterns, essentially a programmable textile. The demo showcases a virtual cloth that responds to user interaction, changing its appearance in real-time. Built with modern web technologies, it hints at a future where clothing and materials are not just passive but interactive and adaptive.

Imagine a fabric that can change its pattern, color, or even display information, all at the touch of a button.

    Hit detection doesn't seem to be always getting the nearest surface to the camera: if there's a folded-over corner in front of the main surface, it almost always seems to move the 'main' part of the 'fabric' behind the folded corner, rather than allowing dragging just the corner in front.

    Black and chrome don’t really look how I would expect
