The objective of this assignment is to procedurally model and animate a bird wing. Let's get creative!
Start by forking and then cloning this repository
Modelling the Shape of a wing procedurally using mathametical equations. First modeling the curve of the wing using Catmull Rom spline. Then instancing a feather geometry across the spline creatinging the basic structure of the wing, many different types of feather geometry can be instanced to sample multiple types of feathers.
The wind force is reflected as the jittering motion of the wings, the speed of the wind determines the jitter rate. Wing flapping is achived by applying a basic sin function to the Y component of the feathers position.
Using Dat.GUI and the examples provided in the reference code, allow the user to adjust the following controls:
- The curvature of the wing's basic shape
- Feather distribution - In Later Implementations
- Feather size
- Feather color - In Later Implementations
- Feather orientation
- Flapping speed
- Flapping motion
