the board and the pieces were modeled and textured in Autodesk Maya, exported to opengl where the rest of the work was done. Other than the AI, real time rendering of the game to make it visually stand out from the crowd was a major challenge as I had to overcome opengl shadowing limitation by analyzing different shadowing options, deciding which one to use for optimized speed. Completing the project and the other opengl labs in my undergrad study requir... ... middle of paper ... ...technical course
Graphical Binary Search Tree and game projects using C++ and OpenGL library. Graphical Binary Search Tree program was a graphical demonstration of formation of Binary Search Tree for a given set of elements and searching of a particular element within the tree. The project involved C++ object oriented programming concepts to create binary tree objects and its methods such as drawing tree nodes and searching an element. The project used OpenGL graphics library for rendering graphics on the screen. The
video card, that they will not run if a supported video card is not installed. • Most video cards support the OpenGL and DirectX libraries. These libraries include commands for manipulating graphics that programmers can include in their code. Some of these commands may include moving or rotating an object, morphing polygons, or casting light and creating shadows. By using standard OpenGL or DirectX functions, it makes it easier for developers to create graphically-oriented programs. Of course, it
Virtual campus tour is a software program where the users can experience the same thing as in the real world. They can touch, walk, run, sit on a chair, or change direction. In other words, it is like an online expedition that is close to real campus walking tour. Virtual campus tour could be a useful reference in the future for architects, urban planners, and government entities. My part in this project is making the brochure and PowerPoint. The brochure contains information about the purpose
With Fedora slowly growing in popularity over the past couple of years, You may be wondering what the big deal is, and why should I make the jump from Windows. Even though both operating systems are capable of doing the same task, Fedora is unable to run most software that is available for Windows. Along with this, Fedora is less likely to get a virus, because the people who write malicious software do so to infect the most computers as possible. Fedora and Windows differ in the recommended user
Surgeons are trained base on VR that helps in evaluating their performance. Moreover, less supervision of human is required in the presence of VR simulation. Knee arthroplasty is discussed deeper in the work of VR simulation by volumetric modelling using OpenGL libraries in orthopedic surgical training. The conversion of data from 2D image to 3D image helps in the practice among surgeons in the system architecture of volumetric simulation. It provide a fully immersive VR. This VR simulation is also known
I am applying to the MS degree in computer science. My passion in the field of computer science dates back to the days when my father bought me my first computer while I was in 5th grade. From then on it was no looking back. I scored very high in computer science during my pre-university schooling that got me admission to one of Karnataka’s most reputed colleges. I continued my superior academic performance with a distinction in every semester. My decision to apply for a graduate education is
Application Definition Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5 is a presentation graphic software. It is scalable video editing application that provides customers with the ability to edit anything from DV to HD. It delivers real-time feedback and decreases the time spent rendering. With a host of professional tools including advance and one-click color correction, multiple sequence; precise audio editing tools, and surround-sound support, it delivers professional quality products. Premiere Pro offers an expanded
Blender 3D, usually known as just Blender, is described by the Blender homepage, Blender.org, as a “free open source 3D content creation suite, available for all major operating systems.” What this basically means is that Blender is a free program that allows someone to create things in a virtual three-dimensional space on almost any computer. This means that someone using Blender can create anything they want, a car, a sword, a house, or even a toothpick, that only exists on the computer it is created
Technology is rapidly advancing and progressing! Computers have developed well beyond their beginning. Along with the computers come the developers and different companies who compete to have the best products and most useful software! These companies have different names and their products have different features and capabilities. Apple is one of the most popular electronic device producers today. They earned their credibility by developing some of the best devices with very reliable and useful
Introduction For the last 10 years the web has reinvented itself. Moving from static HTML pages filled with information to interactive information portals, where massive amounts of people contribute to improve each other and spread knowledge. The web was stale and static, presenting itself with only letters and inanimate images. This gave Adobe Flash and later Microsoft Silverlight; both are rich web application platforms for adding animation and interactivity to web pages, the ideal opportunity
Introduction A game engine is a platform prepared for development of a particular game. In other words, game engine is a set of tools used to develop games. A brief history In the olden days, arcade games were very popular. However, these games are developed as a one-off kind meaning that if someone were to create another game, that person wouldn’t be able to use the same tools due to the fact that the games are developed right there and then. This was because memory at that time was not sufficient
The Evolution of C++ as a Programming Language C++ is a very useful programming language. Many educational curriculums will include either C or C++ as the tool entry-level programmers will use to learn the syntax, semantics, and data structures key to effective programming that is required of computer scientists. C++ is such a diverse language, one cannot help but wonder how it became the popular language it is today, and this paper is going to demonstrate just that. Introduction to CPL
History of the PC “If one thinks about it, it is truly remarkable how far the technology has advanced since the first digital computer was introduced in 1946. The ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Calculator) was designed and built at the University of Pennsylvania. It weighed 30-tons and took up 1500 square feet of floor space. The first computer developed in Europe was the EDSAC (Electronic Delay-Storage Automatic Computer). This machine was built at Cambridge University in 1949.
