	My Images Blog

I've worked on a few projects in both my free time and for courses I have taken.

Realistic Image Synthesis Engine (R.I.S.E) - My latest rendering engine which I worked on from September 2001 to May 2006. It was not only the vehicle of my research but also something of a hobby for those years.
MFCGonio - A virtual goniophotometer used to visualize scattering probability functions (SPF) and bi-directional reflectance distribution functions (BRDF) written in MFC for Windows.
Atoms 2002 - Is a really simple game similar to this java game. The game is two player game, the goal being to dominate the board. Each cell has a critical mass, which when exceeded causes the cell to explode sending its atoms into neighbouring cells. Anyway, you get the idea. Its a fun game for trying to come up with different strategies, also the tides can change very rapidly since the game is prone to long chain reactions. Download binaries or Download source.
IntelliVis - A volume visualization library I wrote for a graduate graphics course.
Rayperl - A really simple ray tracer written in Perl.

Metropos Sampling applet - A simple example of metropolis sampling over three dimensions.
Mandelbrot Fractal test applet - A simple applet that renders a mandelbrot fractal and allows the user to alter its parameters.
Bezier Curve Tesselation test applet - A really simple applet that draws a bezier curve and allows the user to move the control points.
