Homework Assignment 1: OpenSceneGraph
For this assignment you can obtain 100 points, plus up to 20 points for optional work. Note that an average of 100 points in this class will get you a grade of A.
Kitchen with Pots (100 Points)
Install OpenSceneGraph with VRML support, using these instructions to install a binary version.
OSG is a graphics library which sits on top of OpenGL and will be the graphics programming interface in this course.
Next you will need to make yourself familiar with OSG. A good way to do this is by working through some of the tutorials. A good starting point is this tutorial on basic OSG geometry. It would be good if you worked at least through Tutorials 1 and 2 from section "Yet Another Set of Beginner Tutorials" on this web page. While doing these tutorials, it may be helpful to study other OSG documentation, for instance the Reference Guide.
Armed with this knowledge, you will need to load a 3D model of a kitchen (provided in VRML and OBJ formats) with of OSG's 3D model loading routine. You can quickly preview OBJ and VRML files by running the osgviewer application in the bin directory of your OSG installation like this:
osgviewer <modelfile>.wrl
The OpenSceneGraph API command to load a model file into an OSG node is:
osgDB::readNodeFile()
To load the VRML kitchen you would call osgDB::readNodeFile("Kitchen.wrl").
In one of the tutorials is more detailed documentation on how to load 3D files.
Note that the a couple of the kitchen's cabinets are open and do not have doors. We will worry about that in a later homework assignment.
Next you will need to load a pot and a pan into the same application. They are also included in the above referenced ZIP files as Pot and Pan. Place them on the kitchen counter when you initially load them in.
Finally, you will need to make pot and pan selectable separately by using the number keys '1' and '2', and make the selected item movable by means of the cursor keys on the keyboard (to move it up/down, left/right) and the 's' and 'z' keys to move it into/out of the screen.
The selected pot needs to be rapidly blink. You can accomplish this by alternating between making it visible and invisible, with every frame you render. Use the Node::setNodeMask() command with parameters of 0 or ~0 to hide and show it.
In Sequoiah lab 142, you will have to demonstrate the following things on the due date, starting at 1pm:
- Properly installed OSG with VRML support (20 points). You get these points if you can load the kitchen model (as OBJ or VRML) with osgviewer.
- A basic application which opens an OSG rendering window (10 points). You need to be able to build the code with Visual Studio.
- Your application loads the kitchen (10 points) and scales and rotates it so the user can see it (10 points).
- Load pot and pan and show them sitting somewhere on the counter top without intersecting parts of the kitchen or the other item (20 points).
- Select pot or pan with its number key, it should blink now (10 points).
- Use the cursor and s/z keys to move it into the upper cabinet (10 points).
- Select the other pot/pan (5 points).
- Move it into the fridge (5 points).
Note: You are not required to provide mouse support for any parts of this homework project! All interactions should be done using the specified keyboard keys.
Extra Credit (10 Points)
Add code to rotate the selected pot in all three dimensions (5 points), and to uniformly scale it (5 points). You should do this by adding four osg::MatrixTransform nodes before each pot node: one for each rotational dimension, and one for setting the scale. Use the keys 'q', 'w', 'e', and 'r' for each of the four functions, respectively, and their upper case versions for negative rotation/scale. Example: 'q' rotates clockwise about the x axis, 'Q' rotates counter-clockwise about it.
Extra Bonus Credit (10 Points)
If you wrestled through building OpenSceneGraph from scratch, without using binaries somebody else compiled for you, you will get 5 points if you built OpenSceneGraph successfully, and an additional 5 points if you also built the VRML plugin to load .wrl files - whether you did it with OpenVRML or Coin3D.
