Execution Instructions

  • The given submission has the following directory structure :

  • include

    • camera.h
    • shader.h

  • libraries

    • glad
    • glfw
    • glm

  • src

    • fragment.shader
    • vertex.shader
    • main.cpp

  • CMakeLists.txt

    To Generate the prism :

    mkdir build // make a directory 
cd build 
cmake ..
make 
./app < number_of_sides >

    To open an opengl window with the given polynomial rendered .

  • This is a graphics pipeline to create and render 3-d objects , with n ( the number of sides ) passed as the command line input.

Part A : Procedural Generation of the Prism

  1. Created a prism using the parametric coordinates , with each face having unique color .

Part B : Bringing the scene to life with motion

  1. Flying Camera :

    • W , A , S ,D , E ,Q : for 6- D translation of camera around the object

  2. Object Translation :

    • 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 1 , 3 : for the object translation

  3. Prism fashion show :

    • 0 : First of the 2 specified coordinates for the prism
    • 9 : Second of the 2 specified coordinates for the prism

  4. Prism, let’s go for a spin

    • R : A toggle functionality switch . On pressing R , the prism starts rotating about the Z-Axis , on again pressing R The prism stops the rotation .

  5. Oh! How the turntables?

    • T : Toggle switch .
    • Assumption : The object re-orients itself to the origin , and then the camera starts revolving around the object ( which is re arranged to the origin )
