Stage 1 (3p)
Deadline 22.11.2020 23:59
Create a simple loader and visualizer of meshes, stored in obj. file format.
- Structures
- implement IndexedFace which contains array of Vec4 vertex positions and array of Int indices
- Mesh import and display
- load mesh from Wavefront file (.obj). [Download test models here]. Assume that all imported models are scaled to box (2x2).
- display wireframe model in the center of a screen so that the Y-axis of model directs upwards and X-axis directs right. (Z is ignored)
Stage 2 (10p)
Deadline 22.12.2020 23:59
Add transformation controls to your tool.
- Structures
- implement math types Mat4 and Vec4.
- Add functions Multiply(Mat4, Mat4), Multiply(Mat4, Vec4) OR override the multiplication operator.
- Transformations - must be implemented using matrix multiplication!
- Add buttons that can control the transformations of the model. When a user requests transformation by clicking a button, a model matrix should be constructed. (Optionally added to the previous transformation)
- Motel matrix can be reset to identity using a Reset button
- Construct a projection matrix which performs primitive orthogonal projection and transforms the object into the viewport (scale and translate as in the previous stage)
- Always store the original model. Model transformation and projection is done for each point just before rendering
- Examples of the functional program
- screen 1 = Import only
- screen 2 = Import only
- screen 3 = Imported, translated by -0.6 in X-axis, rotated by 0.6 rad around Y-axis, rotated by 0.4 rad around Z-axis and scaled by factor 1.1, in order
Stage 3 (7p)
Deadline 27.1.2021 23:59
Enhance existing visualization tool by implementing Blinn-Phong Lightning Model
- Mesh display
- Implement back-face culling. Faces on the far side of the mesh should not be rendered
- Display solid model - each face is drawn as a polygon filled with color (no edges)
- Final face color should be calculated as multiples of base color and intensity calculated by Blinn-Phong
- Controls
- Add an interface to control the direction or position of the incoming light
Bonus Points
Submit with Stage 3
Extend your visualization options by the following features to earn bonus points. Attention: Your point total (including bonus points) will not exceed 25 points for exercises from computer graphics part.
- Material Properties (1p)
- Expose material properties ka, kd, ks, shininess, and color to GUI. Re-render image when the user changes these properties.
- Lighting Model Selection (2p)
- Implement a switch that allows the selection between two lighting models (Phong vs Blin-Phong). The difference should be minimal but it is a proof of concept.
- Light Types (3p)
- Add possibility to select the light type (point light, sun/directional light) - the GUI option should also change from "light direction" to "light position".
