trick opening boxes - part 1
Bookmarked 616 weeks ago tim has quite a number of trick opening boxes in his collection and here he demonstrates some of the mechanisms on which they are based first up - boxes with sliding sides and panels these have been around for a very long time and sometimes they can just involve one or two moves before you can open the box but in other cases there can be 20 30 or even more moves before the box finally opens then there are boxes which requite you to hold them in a particular place or orientation and then they can be openedthe next toy needs to be spun around on the table and the resulting centrifugal force moves the internal metal pins in such as way that the box can now be opened then there is a box with a weak magnet inside you need to tap or knock the box in just the right place and with the right degree of firmness and this will cause the magnet to lose its grip on the mechanism and allow the box to openfinally we have a box which contains a hidden internal maze and you need to navigate a ball bearing from one end of the maze to the other in order to release the drawer |

adaptive tearing and cracking of thin sheets siggraph 2014
Bookmarked 616 weeks ago siggraph 2014 -- tobias pfaff rahul narain juan miguel de joya and james f o039brienproject page: http:graphicsberkeleyedupaperspfaff-atc-2014-07abstract:this paper presents a method for adaptive fracture propagation in thin sheets a high-quality triangle mesh is dynamically structured to adaptively maintain detail wherever it is required by the simulation these requirements include refining where cracks are likely to either start or advance refinement ensures that the stress distribution around the crack tip is well resolved which is vital for creating highly detailed realistic crack paths the dynamic meshing framework allows subsequent coarsening once areas are no longer likely to produce cracking this coarsening allows efficient simulation by reducing the total number of active nodes and by preventing the formation of thin slivers around the crack path a local reprojection scheme and a substepping fracture process help to ensure stability and prevent a loss of plasticity during remeshingby including bending and stretching plasticity models the method is able to simulate a large range of materials with very different fracture behaviors |

doom on the apple watch - watchos2
Bookmarked 551 weeks ago introducing doom on the apple watchupdate: mehdi mulani that worked with me on this port also ported doom to the soon-to-be-released apple tv https:youtubekphyme60f4swait rewind how and why on earth did this happenso we had a 10-hour hackathon in our facebook tel-aviv office and the idea was to hack around ios stuff apple has released beta versions for watchos 2 that lets you run native apps on the watch and we thought it could be fun to port doom over to it not to mention the fact that john carmack is a colleague omghaving only a few hours we figured we039d better start with the simplest version of doom we could find a quick search and we found ndoom which seemed very interesting this thing runs on a graphing calculators it should run on a watch mmm rightxcode - file - new project a few hours and quite a few code fixes later and the code compiled ok apart from the fact it insta-crashed we were at least getting somewhere after fixing the first few crashes we chose to believe that the number of places where the code crashes must be finite and going head-to-head with this will hopefully take less than the few hours we have leftfor the next few hours we had to quickly understand what makes this doom code tick integrate its run loop with ours figure out how to output an image from this thing come up with controls that fit on a watch tune the performance fix mysterious bugs eventually this is what we ended up with: as you can039t overlay ui elements on the watch we used interface groups to create a 3x3 grid of buttons the lower buttons are toggles for walking around and the upper are used for shooting and opening doors we found doom039s buffer that holds the actual pixel data for each frame every time there039s a new frame to display we use coregraphics to turn the buffer into a uiimage this initially gave us grayscale images but after figuring out doom039s color palettes and applying them we039ve got color we now set this image as the background image for the top most container we used the ui thread to dispatch iterations of doom039s run loop we wired button clicks to post events to doom as if they were coming from a keyboard by far the most intensive task was drawing images to the screen trying to draw them too fast resulted in an annoying unresponsiveness tweaking uiimage039s properties and only updating the image if anything has changed allowed us to squeeze some more juiceand the result can be seen in the video disclaimer: this isnt production code and rather was a kick ass hackathon project so we wont be making the source code available as its an examplewell now after we039re done with this the coffee machine with its color touch screen just stares at us waiting for the next hackathonyou can find my original post here: https:wwwfacebookcomlior2bvideos10153571527835789 |
