Create a Hyperbolic Cylinder Model and DiagramBRL-CAD
Status: ClosedTime to complete: 48 hrs Mentors: SeanTags: 3D, modeling, rendering

BRL-CAD provides a couple dozen distinct primitives.  Each primitive is defined by a set of parameters.  We'd like to have each primitive modeled with diagramming arrows and labels.

This task involves creating a right hyperbolic cylinder (RHC) and modeling the corresponding arrows/segments for all parameters.  Scalars should be dashed lines, vectors should be arrows.  Here's an example:

  • http://brlcad.org/~starseeker/gci_primitive_figures/

Make something like that for the RHC, but with different material properties.  That example put objects into a box for a particular visual effect.  See if you can get a better effect without the exterior box (you'll have to change shader properties).

Submit your .g file and a ray traced rendering/diagram of the model.  This command run within mged may help:

Neither the 'c', nor the 'r'  seem to line up with anything specific.  I know 'r' is a scalar value, so there should be a sphere or something where r begins (i.e., V) and terminates (where the r label goes).  Same thing goes for 'c', assuming it's a scalar value.

Richard, it looks like you're just one or two tasks away from making our top five.  Thought you might like to know that given there's only a few days remaining.
