This project was developed during my time as a visiting student researcher at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology. A live demo of the application is available here.
The idea is to create an interactive Web-based intracellular environment where user would have an option of navigating within a single cell populated with mitochondria, nucleus and some other structures (e.g. Golgi apparatus, fusiform vesicles, …). The demonstration would build upon Real-time Rendering of Liquid Environments Bachelor thesis (code available at: https://github.com/rokcej/liquid-environments) by creating and populating the scene and implementing the navigation.
We also developed the following features for the cellular environment.
- Collision Detection
- Floating function to simulate the sub surface tidal forces
- Hemispherical Object positioning based on the golden spiral method.
The following is a report based on what was developed.
