Mini$-$project Description

The objective of this mini project is to gain some experience applying the computer graphics techniques discussed in the class. You will demonstrate your knowledge of these techniques in the context of a computer graphics application to draw a scene $($or scenes$)$ of your design using Java with Netbeans software tools. Your scene must include one or more of each of the elements described below:

Primitive shapes: points, lines, polygons, $...$etc.

$3$d shapes: cubes, teapots, cones, dots etc.

Colors: background, filling objects

Modeling transformation or Clipping

Keyboard$/$ or mouse events

Lighting

Texture mapping

Reflection of light sources

Submission instructions

Submission of the assignment will be filling this MS Word file containing student name, ID$,$ Section, your answer, and the output snapshot. Please fill in this form with your answer.

The assignment deserves $5$ marks.

The deadline for submission is Saturday, Dec $7(11$:$59$ pm$)$ through Blackboard.

The assignment is individual work, and copied, or empty answers will receive no mark.

Software Requirements

Students are expected to use the following programs:

Java JDK $8$ or newer.

Netbeans $8\mathrm{.}2$ or newer.

Programming Style and Documentation

Each program must start with comments stating your name, the assignment number, and a brief description of the program's purpose.

Students are expected to follow the Programming Style recommendations given in class and in the text. For example $($but not limited to$)$:

Indent statements between braces $3$ or $4$ spaces

Indent after the first line of a statement $3$ or $4$ spaces

Use single blank lines to separate sections of the program

Align opening and closing braces

Use descriptive identifier naming conventions

Include appropriate comments throughout the program.

Mini$-$project Description

The mini project consists of two parts as described below:

Generate a static computer image of a $2$D $/3$D scene with

A ground plane or floor with gridlines;

A sphere floating in the air;

An object of your choice other than a sphere $($e$.$g$.,$ a teapot or a cube$)$ sitting on the floor;

Make the $3$D scene implemented in part $(1)$ interactive and dynamic:

When pressing the key $"$d$",$ the floating sphere would drop, bounce, and eventually stay on the floor.

$-$When pressing the left or right arrow key, the object of your choice will rotate for a certain degree.

Set the frame title with "Assignment $03"$ and your student ID$.$ Include your screen snapshots with your output.
