New Webapp: Solr

I made a quick tool to help choose color palettes - Solr

Hue Value- the base hue
Hue Shift- how much the hue changes between each color
Hue Saturation- how saturated the colors are
Number Colors- the number of colors to generate

Woodworking!

Figured I should post some of the woodworking I've done over the years.

The canvas sling is surprisingly comfy, even though it hangs rather low to the ground.

I made a 3D space shooter game for #LOWREZJAM over on itch.io!
Check it out here.

Aurora Two-color Shader

Testing aurora real-time generation utilizing GLSL shaders and transparency. So much faster than CPU based rendering!

Aurora proof of concept

Built off of plasma effects, this is a two color aurora proof of concept.
The colors won't ever intersect.

Air Hockey Playing Robot

Air Hockey Playing Robot built from scratch with Daniel Koniar and Steve Thomas for CSCI 5551 Robotics. I was in charge of retrieving input from the webcam, determining puck and striker positions, and predicting puck movement and an intercept course. Since the project experienced multiple delays and setbacks the motors never got working properly, and several features proposed never were realized.
