Wonderland Poster (3D)

After creating a poster, I inserted HTML sample HTML codes. I dragged and dropped a picture that is related with article and deleted the picture right after. I changed the HTML codes with my avatar name and exact name of the picture I inserted before. I found a 3D object from Google and re-sized the object to proper size.



This is exercise to create a poster that is related to one of research articles in the Wonderland. It is a final exercise from the Immersive Education course that I am taking at Boston College. The course is called Discovering Computer Graphics. For details, visit the immersive BC portal at http://ImmersiveEducation.org/@/bc

A house in a Rocket World [Group]

This is picture of 2D of our final house.

I used a square and a pyramid to build the basic structure of the house. I changed the color of roof in red and body in light grey.
 This is picture of a helicopter and a garage.
I created the auto bicycle.
The avatar is standing next to the statue.
 This is the structure of the auto-bicycle.
This is completed version of our house.

This exercise is to build a house in Rocket World in a group. The whole class first decided to divide each part of house and started to build their assigned parts. I created the general structure of the house and motorcycle.

Class 12, Roll Call 2


Class 12, Roll Call 1


Monocular Depth Cue

Size Difference
First picture shows much larger size of rocket. As the avatar goes far from the rocket the size of the rocket gets smaller as shown in second picture.

Occlusion
First picture shows outside of the building which the avatar is blocked by the wall and second picture shows inside of the building.

Lighting and Shading
For first picture, the object with sunshine shows much brighter and left-side of the object seems darker. Also, second picture shows brighter sides and shaded sides of the objects.

Texture Density
The blocks under the avatar seems much larger and less denser. However, blocks that are far away from the avatar seems much denser. In fact, both blocks are identical in size, shapes, and density.

Linear Perspective
Two walls are actually parallel. However, the end of the walls seem narrower and converge while starting point of walls seems wider.

Atmospheric Perspective
The tree seems clearer, brighter, and sharper in first picture. However, the second picture seems unclear compared to first one due to the distance.
