  1. VRML Scene Graphs

  2. Learning Objectives • Understand the concept of a scene graph • Understand how VRML defines transformations (translations, rotations, and scaling) • Understand how to define children of transform nodes • Understand how to create a VRML file with a scene graph using a text editor.

  4. What is a Transform? Transform { SFVec3f center 0 0 0 # (- , ) MFNode children [] SFRotation rotation 0 0 1 0 # [-1,1],(- , ) SFVec3f scale 1 1 1 # (0, ) SFRotation scaleOrientation 0 0 1 0 # [-1,1],(- , ) SFVec3f translation 0 0 0 # (- , ) SFVec3f bboxCenter 0 0 0 # (- , ) SFVec3f bboxSize -1 -1 -1 # (0, ) or -1,-1,-1 }

  5. How Does The Transform Work? • Given a 3-dimensional point P and Transform node, P is transformed into point P' in its parent's coordinate system by a series of intermediate transformations. In matrix transformation notation, where C (center), SR (scaleOrientation), T (translation), R (rotation), and S (scale) are the equivalent transformation matrices, • P' = T × C × R × SR × S × -SR × -C × P • (Note that this matrix notation is a transposed form of the material we studied earlier this semester)

  6. In VRML, this would be Transform { translation T children Transform { translation C children Transform { rotation R children Transform { rotation SR children Transform { scale S children Transform { rotation -SR children Transform { translation -C children [...] }}}}}}}

  7. What Do You Need To Remember? • FIRST TRANSLATE • THEN ROTATE

  9. How Do You Define Children? children [ Shape { geometry Sphere {} } Transform { translation 2 0 0 children DEF Joe Shape { geometry Sphere { radius .2 } } Transform { translation -2 0 0 children USE Joe } ] Sphr 1 Trans (-2 0 0) Trans (2 0 0) Joe 2 Joe
