smoother tooth

Trying to get a smoother appearance for the curved gear teeth involves lessons both in logo programming and in the underlying 3d display technology.

two gears

It turned out that producing a set of involute gears requires quite a bit of geometry in addition to involutes.

gear2d prototype

Following the circle involute blog, I thought about creating a gear procedure for easy creation of different gears. The method used is quite differnt to the involute idea but the turtle geometry way of thinking and doing the gears. This prototype procedure utilised a simple regular poygon formula (repeat :sides [ fd 1 rt 360/:sides ]) and some built-in commands such as TOWARD and SETHEADING to rotate the turtle and get the directions needed.

Palm tree leaf

Outsite my office window, there are many palm trees. I thought about making one so it may be reused later to make a full tree.

A surprise happened when I was trying to use nested transforms.

MERGA38 Presentation

This is my first attemp to create a 3D virtual world for a conference presentation. This presentation is for my paper titled "Mathematics, Programming and STEM" published in MERGA 38 conference proceedings.

Hydrogen atom

I have been contemplating the animation framework and recently implemented a SPIN command to make spin animation easy for even young children. In order to show how to spin objects, I have created this hydrogen atom simulation to demonstrate the SPIN and a few new commands.

A size able table with a bowl and a metre post

A sizeable table and bowl. I hope you like the customisation of the table and the bowl, creating weird combinations.

This is my first creation and its basicly just a bunch of the same shape in a massive circle.
