Hello,
I'm quite new to Java3D and I just want to implement following task.
Perhaps somebody else has already done this and could send me some
code examples or can tell me with which J3D classes and how I can
manage this:
A 2-dimensional rectangular matrix should be transformed into a
3-dimensional visualization of the matrix. The values at each position
should represent the height of the actual point. (The program should
work like the 'matrixplot' in Maple. )
There are two desired appearances of the 3-dimensional visualization which I
want to implement. But at first number 1 is more important:
(1) the output of the visualization consists of triangulars. The
corners of the triangular are the values of the matrix. Every point
and the near area around should be in a height-dependent color.
(2) The sharph edges (of the triangular) should be transformed into a smooth
curve. But I don�t know how to implement this. Perhaps splines are a
solution!? Are they implemented in Java3D? How can I find information about
it?
Other constraints:
A coordinate-system should also be added, with the x-axe (rows of the
matrix), y-axe (colums) and the z-axe (the value of the matrix). This
is just a suggestion it could be different!
Light effects and interactive views (clicking with the mouse or with
the arrow-key should change the point of view) should also be part of
the implementation.
Thanks for any hints and tips!
