“…Most initial and default values were based on the 2D case from [4]; otherwise, the values are empirical and are partially dependent on the hardware the simulation is executing on. The values can be changed at real-time with the GUI interface [13].…”

3D graphics power-point-like slides in OpenGL is a way to present a demo or a teaching item. We focus on how the softbody objects are modeled and rendered with the intent to make a base for teaching, learning, and education of/for computer graphics and integration with the softbody framework. This is work-in-progress on the implementation and publication of this integration and demonstration work.

“…Initially it had limited user interface [11,12]. Then the fine-grained to high-level level-of-detail (LOD) GLUI-based [9] user interface has been added [13], GPU shading support was added [14] using the OpenGL Shading Language [10], a curvebased animation was integrated, and software engineering re-design is constantly being applied. The example of the common visual design of the LOD interactivity interface is summarized in Figure 2.…”

“…There the traditional power-points and various techniques can be exemplified at run-time at the same time and the source code can be released to the students later to follow the examples through at all angles. For this purpose we integrated the physical-based softbody simulation system [11,12,13] with the OpenGL slides presentation framework (OGLSF) [6,7] that compose in a small demo that we discuss throughout this work.…”

This work expands further our earlier poster presentation and integration of the OpenGL Slides Framework (OGLSF) -to make presentations with real-time animated graphics where each slide is a scene with tidgets -and physical based animation of elastic two-, three-layer softbody objects. The whole project is very interactive, and serves dual purpose -delivering the teaching material in a classroom setting with real running animated examples as well as releasing the source code to the students to show how the actual working things are made.

“…The first area of focus for the research is leaning towards the real-time softbody simulation (Song and Grogono, 2008a;Song and Grogono, 2008b) in haptics-enabled environment for specialist-training and interactive cinema. We begin by using a joysticklike and a sensor glove-like haptic devices to interact and deform a softbody in an OpenGL (OpenGL Architecture Review Board, 2008) 3D environment that provides feedback back to the user restricting their movements based on the elasticity and shape of the modeled virtual objects (e.g.…”

Interactive augmented reality via tangible media and cinema enabled with responsive environments through haptic devices providing the physical feedback from a virtual space to the real space to the interacting audience is becoming more common especially now that computer graphics and other visual stimuli are becoming so photorealistic and where they fail, the brain makes up the missing details. This covers games, cinema, virtual reality applications and education applications. It seems that so common that we will all live in a couple of decades in an interactive virtually-enhanced world where we won't be able some times to tell apart the virtual and the real. How will this affect the upcoming generations and child education? Will we be out of touch with the reality like in the Matrix (Wachowski and Wachowski, 1999)? While possibly accepting the upcoming inevitable change, can we improve on it early on and turn it to our advantage? If so, how? We present the initial research steps as a part of this work to start answering these questions.
