Google. Unbranded.

You were so much used to it that you didn’t notice, I bet! Google has removed all the beta labels from its brands… Wow!

That’s a great piece of news!

Computer Graphics project.. Released!

Shot of the game: the flag

Hello world, this is my project for the computer graphics exham I just attended! It’s a simple videogame modelled like a first person shooter where you can’t shoot but must reach the jellow flag before the red balls – likewise said the enemies – reach you!

Here are the tech specs:

• Language: c++
• Libraries: OpenGL & GLUT
• Memory footprint: 54MB on a 64bit machine, at least 32MB of video ram required.

If you are on a linux (Ubuntu I suppose) machine you must in order:

1. install the build tools: apt-get install build-essential cmake freeglut3-dev bzr
2. download the sources: bzr co lp:~alessandro-bruni/+junk/infografica
3. build the sources: cd infografica/build && cmake .. && make
4. run the project and enjoy the game: ./infografica

And if you want to browse the source code at my “junk” repository… go get it at: https://code.launchpad.net/~alessandro-bruni/+junk/infografica

That’s all for now folks! Make a nice game

Off-screen rendering with Qt/Jambi & JOGL

The same stupid triangle example: that's all you need!

Have you ever wondered how to make images at runtime (given that you know OpenGL)? Here’s a solution (and a the same, stupid triangle example) using Java and Qt!

Eclipse

Lunar eclipse taken at Asiago - Vicenza

I took this shot during my holydays in Asiago, the moon had been obscured and the sky was completely free from clouds.

It was a fantastic night!
