Scene Graph
•
This Red Jay Scene Graph was my first introduction to advanced concepts in C++, including inheritance and polymorphism, as well as graphics and UI tool-building. Leveraging linear algebra transformation sequences, I created a tree data structure wherein each node contains a transformation matrix, and child nodes inherit the transformations of their parent nodes. The result…

Fourier Drawing Tool
•
Artist’s Horse Sketch Goal: Convey artists’ dynamic drawing process. I.e. blocking, sketching, refining. I’ve always loved drawing horses for their beautiful movement and figure. I’ve also been fascinated with the artistic drawing process, in which an artist begins by placing a rough sketch before refining and detailing. Thus, using my Fourier Drawing Tool (explained…

Micro Maya
•
Summary: Micro Maya is a mesh editor application created using C++ and OpenGL in Qt Creator. Meshes are loaded in as OBJ files, stored in half-edge data structures from interlinked pointers, and visualized using OpenGL vertex buffers. Vertices, edges, and faces can be highlighted and manipulated using the UI. Mesh topology operations include adding…
