dc.description.abstractNowadays there are several companies offering many different kinds of mindmapping and visual learning software. These products are used every day by a lot people because they are certainly tools that can improve productivity as well as creativity and learning. But all the existing mindmapping programs have something in common: they create maps and diagrams in 2D only. Purpose of this paper is showing the idea of applying the impressive power of 3D graphics to this particular field together with an unusual but suitable way of interaction through a P5 glove: this idea was developed and became MightyMind3D. One of the main goals of this study was to find a good way to show the same information of a 2D MindMap in a 3D space, paying attention to all the possible advantages that could be gained compared to 2D programs. The results achieved are satisfying and the project has many aspects that can be matter of future development.en_US
