The exam is tentatively scheduled for Thursday of next week.
Which would you prefer: Thursday (Oct 11) or Tues (Oct 16)?

Lab:

• Complete: Lab 2: Getting Started with OpenGL
• Complete: Lab 3: Transformations

More on OpenGL - see SIGGRAPH Course Notes.

Transformations

• Transformations are covered in Chapter 3 of your textbook.
• Matrix representation of transformations: translation, scale, rotation, shear, reflection, projection
• composition
• Rotation/scale around a point other than the origin
• Determinants, inverses
• Homogeneous coordinates
• Euler Rotations and Gimbal Lock Explained and Euler (gimbal lock) Explained
• Quaternion Rotations
• Scene Graphs

Practice problems

OpenGL: Most of the functions below have been deprecated but have been replaced with similarly named matrix functions in the mat.h header and other files (see our code).

• Matrices in OpenGL
  • Modelview Matrix
  • Projection Matrix
  • Setting matrices: gluLookAt, gluPerspective, glMatrixMode, glLoadIdentity, glPushMatrix, glPopMatrix

• Summary of OpenGL functions for setting up Transformations:

  Modeling transformation modelview matrix	glTranslate, glRotate, glScale
  Viewing transformation modelview matrix	gluLookAt
  Projection transformation projection matrix	glFrustum, gluPerspective, glOrtho, gluOrtho2
  Viewport transformation	glViewport
