Computer Animation to teach interpolation

Quaternions, Interpolation and Animation

The main topics of this technical report are quaternions, their mathematical properties, and how they can be used to rotate objects. We introduce quaternion mathematics and discuss why quaternions are a better choice for implementing rotation than the well-known matrix implementations. We then treat di erent methods for interpolation between series of rotations. During this treatment we give co...

Computer Animation

Animation is the production of consecutive images, which, when displayed, convey a feeling of motion. Animated images are almost magical in their ability to capture our imagination. By telling a compelling story, astounding with special effects, or mesmerizing with abstract motion, animation can infuse a sequence of inert images with the illusion of motion and life. Creating this illusion, eith...

A Rule Based Approach to teach Mathematics using Animation

There are different available methodologies for teaching mathematics to children. Teachers use different approaches. Some of the exiting approaches include engaging students with different activities and games. Computer games/tools have been proven effective with teaching Maths. The aim of the paper is to provide teachers with no background in Computer Science with a utility that enables them t...

Direct animation interfaces: an interaction approach to computer animation

Edugraph: Software to Teach Computer Graphics Concepts

Computational processing capacity allows the development of sophisticated interactive animation with different kinds of media resources. Computer games are examples of multimedia software with entertainment and high sophistication characteristics. Such technology allied with cognitive concepts can be used to implement educational software. This poster describes the implementation of a software ...
