Prototype Gallery

Cedric Pinson — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 02:45:21 +0000

A few months ago I did an experiment with UltraNoir to make a gallery for nice fourniture. The idea was to use classical view with nice picture, but if the browser handled webgl we wanted to improve the experience. There are a lot of smart stuff to try to improve user experience in gallery. I hope we will have time to experiment them in the futur. For this model, we asked to an artist to setup the lighting and bake it into texture, then we used a normal map. It’s really simple for now. To be continued

If you have a webgl browser you can have a try with the real time version. Sorry the model is big and not optimized and will be long to load.

Nouvelle Vague

Nouvelle Vague is a project I work on from ultranoir, It offers a poetic and interactive real-time 3D experience based on Twitter. In a minimalist and surrealist world, Tweets are carried out with different flying objects from the borders of the scene to the center where stands the ultranoir black statue (tweets are retrieved from your selected hashtag).

Flying objects are air balloons, biplane, UFOs, zeppelins, balloons. Each has its own speed and specific paths. The user can select any of these ships to take advantage of the pilot’s view and explore the scene.

Read more from ultranoir article and try the experience

Last months I have worked to make a webgl demo for Mozilla for the launch of firefox 4. The demo show differents features of firefox 4 like webgl, geo localized api and multi touch events. You will need a modern browser means (firefox 4, chromium, opera dev, safari dev).

Vehicle Editor

Since I experimented webgl stuff, some clients start to think seriously to make 3d apps on the web. For one of them I have done a Vehicle Editor. The idea is to select a chassis and customize it with different element you can plug on it.
The pipeline use blender file exported to OpenScenGraph format and then it convert it to osg.js . If you have a modern browser with WebGL, have a try with real time version or try the video here or on youtube

osgEarth

The last year I have worked on the osgEarth project, osgEarth is project on top of OpenSceneGraph to make application where you can display information on Earth ( like google earth ). I worked on different subject, Symbology, Pointcloud rendering, KML support, Sqlite driver to store tiles.

PokMe Live Stream

Cedric Pinson — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 13:31:36 +0000

I added a live stream to pokme to follow the game in real time. It saves every frame of the game and sends them to gstreamer, which forwards the frames to a server using fluxmotion to combine and broadcast the stream. This project was done for Outflop.
You will need Firefox 3.5 to view the ogg stream

osgDirectShow

Cedric Pinson — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 10:30:00 +0000

I wrote an OpenSceneGraph DirectShow plugin for Tharsis Software . The project’s goal was to render four video/audio streams (four blackmagic cards) for television channels (France 3 18h30, and France 2).
You will need a browser that supports ogg files such as Firefox 3.5.

Dragger and Multi Selection

Cedric Pinson — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 10:25:00 +0000

Introduced a multi-selection module (drag the selection, rotate it) to an existing application called Life Explorer for the Fondation Fourmentin Guilbert. It demonstrates the use of osgManipulator from OpenSceneGraph. The manipulator are what you could find in existing software packages like Blender, 3DSMax, or Maya.

LifeExplorer

Life Explorer is a tool for researcher to modelise molecule in 3d, it uses xul for the interface and OpenSceneGraph for the 3d. I make some improvement periodically on the 3D part.

CitizenMedia

Cedric Pinson — Thu, 01 May 2008 12:02:00 +0000

Citizen Media is a tool to create 3D scenes with triggers/actions behaviour. The interface is made with qt and embed an OpenSceneGraph window. I have used osgManipulator to make the 3D gizmo (translate/rotate/scale) and it works very well, thanks to the authors of this module.
