The ground is procedurally generated using a random midpoint method and smoothed using a neighborhood smoothing filter. The trees were generated by different procedural rules. The scene uses OpenGL material and lighting.
A deformable bodies simulator based on a standard non-linear strain finite element simulation as in O’Brien et al. [1999]. This approach required incredibly small time steps.
The purpose for this project was to visualize interactively isosurfaces of a 3D dataset for three levels of resolution. Using the provided datasets, I extracted and rendered an isosurface. I also added two user interface components that allow a user to change the isovalue of the isosurface and level of resolution of the dataset.
3D terrain visualization program which loads a terrain map file containing unsigned chars. The terrain switches to a half resolution version based on the distance from the viewer. The boundaries between the full and half resolution terrain are “stitched” so that no “holes” are visible in the terrain. The user may navigate through the scene […]
