CHAPTER 15
Doing Physics in 3D
So far in this book you have built simulations in two dimensions. But in the real world there are three dimensions: what does it take to extend the hard work you’ve already done into the 3D realm? In this penultimate chapter we introduce you to the exciting world of 3D physics-based animation.
Topics covered in this chapter include the following:
- 3D physics and math: This section discusses how to extend our existing code framework to create 3D simulations. In the process we’ll explore some additional math concepts that will help to handle both translational and rotational motion in 3D, which will be used in the ...
