This is a small wrapper around magnum graphics to easily load/create objects and move them within the scene. Suitable to draw simple mechanical motions or function-based colored meshes.

Authors/Maintainers

• Bernardo Fichera (bernardo.fichera@epfl.ch)

Available Utils

• import from file

ToDo

• Unify Object and DrawableObject
• Fix draw when material is present
• Fix set of mesh, color, material etc
• Remove debug messages
• Fix vertical rotation (problem when camera not in y=0, it keeps rotating about old y)

Usage

Work in progress. Check the examples to get an idea.
