Mercury is spinning...


More play with OpenGL texturing.

This is mercury spinning on the screen. Using Nehe's tutorial as a base.


Sphere plotter

Experimenting with openGL, I was asked to develop a 4D plotter, where the 4th dimension is given by the diameter of the spheres, which are placed over the 3 other dimensions.

Toyish look, you agree? :-)



Based on NeHe's Tutorials.

Programming on an embedded ARM device.

This is just great. I'll be involved in a C programming project using a Single Board Computer, a TS 7200.



It sports :
  • 200 MHz ARM9 processor with MMU
  • Boots Linux out of the box
  • 32 MB SDRAM
  • 8 MB Flash disk (16 MB optional)
  • 10/100 Ethernet
  • Compact Flash
  • 2 USB 2.0 Compatible OHCI ports (12 Mbit/s Max)
  • 2 COM ports
  • 20 DIO
  • PC/104 expansion bus
  • Optional A/D and RS-485
Definitively I think it will be a lot of fun programming on it!

[update] Project cancelled, oops!
