Light with switch

Light with switch

After much thinking and planning, I have finally implemented an initial behaviour framework. Behaviour is different to animation. But it may also have effect of animation. In this blog, I have programmed a desk lamp -- a spotlight with a switch. You can click on the switch to switch on and off the light. When you do, you can also hear a switch sound, so have your speakers turned on to enjoy the virtual simulation of light, shadow and sound.

VAM Temple project

VAM Temple

The VAM Temple project was completed by 3 primary school students (Year 5, aged 9) in 2003, using the archived VRMath 1.0 application. The Logo program they wrote at the time can still run in the new VRMath2 Editor with few modifications. You can try to recreate it in the VRMath2 Editor, by openning the  vam_temple.logo in the Logo Editor and executing the program.

Simple Dice

Simple Dice

A while ago, my PhD supervisor Professor Nason was watching me using VRMath2 Editor. He saw that I could create a cube easily by clicking on the cube icon in the Shapebar, and I could apply a texture on the cube easily by clicking on the cube (select it) and then click on an image texture in the Texture Chooser in Property Inspector Window. However, when he asked me to create a dice, I could not do it quickly because an image texture will be applied to all the six faces of the built-in cube.

Ever wanted to have your own Art Gallery? Well, you can create your own in VRMath2 Editor and share on VRMath2 Community blog to your friend. After few hours of Design and Create, I am happy to share with you my first Gallery.

Sundial simulation

Sundial

Some weeks ago, I have implemented the lighting components in VRMath2 Editor. There are three different lights: point light, directional light, and spotlight. In this blog, I am using the directional light to simulate the sunlight for casting a shadow on a sundial.
