Animation in VRMath2 is still in the development stage. I have created some Logo commands to achieve some basic animation. Animation in Logo can be very powerful because it is very easy to move the turtle around in 3D space and collect its position and orientation for animation.

Here is a basic introduction of animation in VRMath2. The whole animation framework will be revised and more GUI will be developed to enable easy creation of animations.

Introduction

Platonic solids are polyhedron which satisfy 3 conditions

1. all its faces are congruent convex regular polygons,
2. none of its faces intersect except at their edges, and
3. the same number of faces meet at each of its vertices

Hexahedron

The most commonly recognised platonic solid, also known as a cube. 

This is another test of animation in VRMath2. The construction of the man utilises basic 3D primitives including sphere, cone, sylinder, and cube. It is basically a trial and error approach to scale and apply material settings onto those 3D primitive objects. 

Animation is then applied to the arms and legs by careful considerations about their positions and orientations of movements.
