Particle Systems revisited

This stands as my first computer animation class submission. Utilizing the Eigen matrix library, I created a simple particle system framework. This was used to simulate three scenes - balls falling under gravity, a snow ball and a constrained system consisting of a bead moving on a wire.

Photo-tropism simulation using Open-L Systems

As a part of my term project for the Simulation of Biological Systems class - Spring 2013, I implemented an L System based tree growth simulation system that tries to simulate photo-tropism in plants.

A blast from the past - unfinished 2D Side Scroller

Looking through my old projects, I came across this unfinished work, that I'd tried to create - a 2D side-scroller that aimed to support sprite-sheet based animations, a tile-based engine and parallax scrolling.

Through a Child's Eyes - Augmented Experience Design

I am taking a Virtual Environments class this Spring, and this post describes an experience that I created for the same. The experience was created using the Argon AR browser.

Gray-Scott Reaction Diffusion

Reaction diffusion systems have been explorer by researchers for the formation of interesting patterns, and thus used for procedural texture synthesis. A wonderful paper by my Professor, Greg Turk explores this topic. This very interesting field was also an assignment topic in our class on the Simulation of Biological Systems.

Cellular Automata - The Game of Life

Created as an introductory programming assignment for a course - Simulation of Biological Systems - that I am taking, this project involves simulating Conway's Game of Life CA using processing.
