Tomorrow morning I am leaving to London where I am having a job interview with
Glu. Cross your fingers and praire for me to get the
job.
Today has been the start of yet another project - Human Factor. In this project we will try to simulate scenarios where we will test how well people tolerate stressfull situations. The scenarios should be presented in glorious 3D. Each participant should connect to the server running the simulation using a simple client showing only the controller this person is using. One person could for example control only the X axis of a crane. As the situation comes out of control as some of the controllers gets screwed up, persons will start to stress.
We decided that we will implement the simulation visuals with the help of Java. This because I currently knows Java better than C++, and that I have used Java for networked applications earlier.
My first attempt at using Java3D i presented below. Not really impressive yet, but I am starting to get the feeling on how to use the library for implementing a virtual world.
