Imagine a "daily pal" for AR or desk tablets—managing tasks and routines through natural gestures instead of a mouse. For #FigmaMakeathon, I moved beyond static design to build a live-synced prototype proving the potential of spatial interaction.
I stepped out of the standard use cases for #FigmaMake with a robust output layer for custom computer vision. Custom MediaPipe script translates gestures into data. Supabase holds the system state in real-time. Figma Make consumes that data to trigger complex, animated changes.
This experiment reframes prototyping for AR/VR—using the design tools we love and new interactions.

And yes, I don't code.

P.s. you may run it, but won't be able to use it without my script on the side (as Figma cannot use camera)
Love this! So cool 😎
Hey Ana! Are you able to share your Figma make link with us here?

super cool!
Thanks everyone, for support and interest. For those who asked about workflow and how to recreate, it's a little too long for post here, so I'll try to do a case study over the weekend and post it on Medium next week https://medium.com/@uxraspberry

Hi Community! 👋
So I’ve been playing around with Figma Make during the early planning phase of a website project… and I have to say , it’s low-key addictive. 😅
It’s amazing for turning rough ideas into something visual in real time. No overthinking. No staring at a blank canvas questioning your life choices. Just quick iterations and instant feedback.
My tip: Add it to your exploration phase. It makes brainstorming faster, smoother, and honestly… way more fun.
It almost feels like your ideas are finally keeping up with your brain speed. 🧠⚡
Has anyone else added this to their workflow yet? Curious to hear how you’re using it!
