Welcome to the transfont
Introduction
People have their own accents, gestures, and handwriting. But in the digital world, they don't have their own fonts to express themselves. Transfont is a project to create an interactive typeface. Determine the appearance of the font in response to human motion. These designed fonts become personal fonts.
