3D Modeling and Virtual Reality
B232 - Summer 23/24
This is a grouped Moodle course. It consists of several separate courses that share learning materials, assignments, tests etc. Below you can see information about the individual courses that make up this Moodle course.
3D Modeling and Virtual Reality - B0B39MVR
Main course
| Credits | 6 |
| Semesters | Winter |
| Completion | Assessment + Examination |
| Language of teaching | Czech |
| Extent of teaching | 2P+2C |
Annotation
Students get an overview of basic techniques for modeling spatial objects and scenes. They learn to create simple, but highly interactive and animated objects in a virtual space. Theoretical background is practiced using VRML/X3D specification. Besides fully 3D virtual environments, other approaches like augmented reality or panoramic images are introduced. The aim is also to make connections between virtual reality browsers and other software components widely used on the web.
Study targets
To get familiar with methods and algorithms in the area of virtual reality. To obtain a practical experience with authoring and presentation of interactive virtual worlds in the immersive environment.
Course outlines
1. Coordinate systems and transformations
2. Boundary representation
3. Scene graph, camera properties
4. Colors and lights in 3D
5. Modeling static scenes in VRML/X3D
6. Multiple instances, prototypes
7. Efficiency issues in VRML/X3D, data import from other programs
8. Manipulation, interaction, and animation
