Break

While we are on break, there are still some people that are working on their own parts. Ryan Maloney is working on the game side. He is working on creating a map that we can begin to put our own models into, Ben is working on some augmented reality stuff, and there are other students that are working on the electrical and mechanical engineering side. We are planning to start building the first Saturday back from break. See everyone after break.

Programming Fun

Myself, Ryan Maloney, and Ryan Rawlins are all working together on the neoaxis code. To be truthful, it seems crazy..... They have a .physics file, a .type file, and a .txt file.... these are the only pieces of code that I can see for the helicopter .... There are also various other meshes that are in the file... Classes above this one are actual .cs files (c#). We are going to copy the code from helicopter over and then change the name and see if it shows up in neoaxis. Nodir should join us tomorrow.. if he can..

Project News

Hey everyone,
So far, up to this point, we have been able to really come together as a team and accomplish quite a bit. The programming group is finally beginning to understand how to manipulate objects inside of OGRE 3D (using Neoaxis). The Electrical/Computer Engineers have been working on an H Bridge design as well as learning how to work with different technologies. The Mechanical Engineers are working on (and should have finished this Saturday) a design that they will review with a professor here at RIT. Once they finish that, we will be able to actually build our flight simulator. Also, on a very positive note, we might have an influx of 3D artists thanks to a class here at RIT!!! Senior Design assistance (Or something like this). Thank you CIAS! This will turn into a once a week post. Tune back in, on Sunday to hear more about the progress of the project. Don't forget to leave any comments if there is something that you would like to know.
