An in-development Android tablet 3D modeler built around drawing with a stylus, measuring shapes, and pulling them into solids.

Android tablet users modeling rooms or objects
Worth noticing
The page reports an STL export verified on a 2 × 3 × 2.7 m watertight solid; real S Pen hardware testing remains ahead.

Field notes

The workflow illustration moves from a closed footprint to a dimensioned solid and then an opening, with the example using a 3.20 m length and 0.90 m door. The page says pen/touch separation and palm rejection are implemented, but distinguishes tablet emulation from real S Pen hardware testing. Penloft is built on the Hew solids modeler; the page notes that its own 3D demo uses Three.js rather than the Hew kernel.
