OpenGL Graphics

This project features a 3D graphics application exhibiting key techniques in graphics programming. The application demonstrates the use of  the OpenGL API.  Among the features implemented are:

• Lighting
  • The scene shows lighting from multiple lights of different types, colours and some animated. Light types include ambient, point and spot.
• Geometry
  • All geometry is correctly textured and lit
  • A mix of imported models, hand-crafted geometry and procedurally generated shapes
  • Transparent geometry and use of depth sorting
  • Emmisive materials
• Camera and Interaction
  • Fully-functional camera allowing for keyboard and mouse controls
  • Multiple cameras each with different view; fixed, procedurally controlled
  • User interactivity in the form of adjusting simulation speed of program
  • Skybox
• Heirarchical Modelling and Animation
  • Utilising matrix stack
  • Orbiting planets and objects in scene
• Shadows
  • Multiple shadows implemented
• Use of stencil buffers
  • Reflection
• Wireframe mode
• Appropriate code class structure
