Description:


    The animations are examples of three-dimensional rigid body dynamics simulations calculated using a system under development. The system can accurately model a general class of three-dimensional dynamics processes for arbitrary rigid bodies including articulated figures.

Hardware:


    HARDWARE: Symbolics 3620, Convex C-1

Software:


    SOFTWARE DEVELOPER: James Hahn
