For those of you that haven't seen this yet, here's a really fantastic BRL-CAD simulation video by Jon Engbert:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzaKWzntnmc That's a simulation that was run inside mged, rendered with rt (and rtedge to highlight the edges), and the frames composited into an animation video. BRL-CAD's physics simulation interface was started under SOCIS about 3 years ago, worked on across two separate SOCIS years by Abhijit and Oana respectively. This past summer over the course of just a couple weeks, Jon not only picked up where they left off (http://brlcad.org/wiki/Mged_simulation) but he fixed several major bugs, updated to the latest version of Bullet, and got complex-body contact collisions working. Soon, he plans on getting the simulation to work with multiple/arbitrary objects in a scene interacting and simplifying scene setup. This simulation feature will be unveiled in a future release of BRL-CAD and probably have an accompanying news posting, but wanted to give others devs a preview now because ... well, it's pretty awesome. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Meet PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance Requirements with EventLog Analyzer Achieve PCI DSS 3.0 Compliant Status with Out-of-the-box PCI DSS Reports Are you Audit-Ready for PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance?
