Drone displays/light shows are performed by synchronized and choreographed collections of drones that position themselves to recreate various aerial formations. Each drone is equipped with LED lights that can change colour during the display. The first drone display was presented

3D Snowman

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation of a snowman. Our aim is to create our snowman by adding different 3D shapes such as spheres, cylinders, cones, etc. We will then create a compound

Space Invaders – 3D Pixel Art

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation of a space invader. 2D Graphics used in retro arcade games consist of pixels. A 2D graphic can be described as a grid of pixels of different

3D Traffic Lights

Did you know? An embedded system is a computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electrical system, often with real-time computing constraints. A burglar alarm, an in-car cruise control system, a speedometer on a bike, a

3D Lego Bricks

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation representing the various Lego bricks. Our aim is to recreate bricks by joining several cubes and cylinders (studs) together. We will then create a compound object to

3D Solar System

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation representing the revolution of the Earth around the Sun, and of the Moon around the Earth. Earth Revolution First, let’s calculate the angle of rotation needed to

3D Tetris Shapes

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation representing the various shapes used in a game of Tetris. Our aim is to recreate each shape by joining several cubes together. We will then create a

3D Molecules

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation representing the molecule H2O. Our aim is to recreate the molecule by joining three spheres together (one sphere for each atom). We will then create a compound

3D Animation : Moon Phases

In this blog post we will use Glowscript to create a 3D animation representing how we perceive the moon from Earth throughout its cycle. Our aim is to represent a 3D sphere and to progressively change the direction of the
