Splines and Bézier Curves and their application in Video Games

The geometry of curves and surfaces is of fundamental importance in computer graphics and in video game programming. In this article we will describe the mathematics of interpolation curves, in particular splines and Bézier curves, with examples of use in the Unity 3D environment. 1) Mathematical representations of curves Definition Read more…

Euler Angles, Hamilton’s Quaternions and video games

Programming video games, as many areas of science and technology, requires computing the coordinates of an object in different reference systems, constructed by combining together translations, rotations or scale changes.The problem is particularly complex with the rotations. In a previous article we have studied the representation of rotations by means of matrices, Read more…

Matrix Algebra and Game Programming

1) Algebra of matrices A matrix \(A(m,n)\) defined on the field of real numbers \(\mathbb{R}\) is a collection of real numbers \((a_{ij})\), indexed by natural numbers \(i, j\), with \(1\le i\le m\) and \( 1\le j\le n\). We can represent a matrix with a rectangular array of numbers arranged in Read more…
