The new and improved NerdBoard!

The first verison of my personal whiteboard implementation!

I am creating this app for a Math Talk. The Math Talk will expand on the concept of the Conic Sections, where the Conic Sections can describe a higher dimensional shape, in this case a Cone. This app shows Quadric Surfaces, which are cross sections of a 4-D shape. By exposing ourselves as much as possible to these cross sections, could potential help describe a 4D shape!

This app graphs Quadric Surfaces, there is a text field on top where you can enter a function of a Quadric Surface. The first 6 sliders rotate a 4D shape and the last slider shifts a hyper-plane in a dimension. The shapes we see are where the hyperplane intersects the 4D shape. Lastly, on the bottom there is another text field where you can enter a resolution to re-graph an interesting shape.

The Digital Signage will run on 2 top table in a build at SCSU, the ISELF building. The Digital Signage will replace old software with unique and futuristic software by the VizLab at SCSU!

Being able to draw on webpages can be very useful in certain situation. The idea came up when working with a friend, Steven Henningsgard, to add functionality to a web app he was developing.

Find a number of length "n" from the Fibonacci Sequence, the app was inspired by a question hosted on ProjectEuler.net.

The app will create a video carousel that will continuously play all the videos in the playlist. At the bottom of the screen there is a list of the videos that you can swipe and browse through. Once you have found a video just click and enjoy the show.

The carousel allows for user selection to choose a video to watch, when there is not selection the carousel loops through all the videos in the list. This app was made for an art conference in SCSU, made by Isaac Durant and myself.

The archTool_1.0 program was built for Dr. Muniz's (Assistant Professor of Anthropology) Graduate Program at St. Cloud State University. With the purpose of intergrating modern technology with a very distinct and unique process of surveying land developed by Dr. Muniz.

Taking ditigal logic gave me the idea of making this app. Instead of drawing the circuit on a piece of paper, using this app give a better concept of signals and gates. The picture proves daulity, the dual of x * (x+y) = x is x + (x*y) = x.

Extending Paper.js touch gestures to perform pan and zoom. I needed to add this functionality to Paper.js for my archtool_1.0 project, so that the user could zoom and pan around the terrain image they are surveying.

Extending Paper.js touch gestures to give multi-touch drawing functionality. It was a thought to add multi-drawing functionality to my archtool_1.0 project, so I made this concept to learn more about Paper.js and touch events.

DEMO!

When my simulator is loaded, 20 random objects are placed randomly in a space. With the laws of physics I learned at the University, I was able to create my very own physics engine. This allowed a more natural visualization of gravitational interaction. The idea of making objects interact with each other came to me when working with Cannon.js. Since Cannon.js is built to do a varity of things (not one specific task) it was heavy on my system, forcing me to make my own distinct physics engine.

20 cubes are placed in the center of a space, with little work I was able to integrate THREE.js and Cannon.js. Cannon.js is a physics engine that is taking care of all motion in the scene.

First learning experience with Three.js, the attempt was to learn quickly. I learned how to build a scene, add a camera, create a renderer, add objects to the scene, and just have fun! I also learned that a geometry and material are required to create a Three.js object.

With a smart recipe book you'll be able to: add/remove personal recipes, search recipes by ingredient/recipe, and create a recipe/shopping list from current refrigerator ingredients.
