New in blender is a physically based volume material type, intended for rendering participating media, such as smoke, clouds, fog, and other volumetric effects. All procedural textures are supported as data sources, as well as two new textures for rendering voxels (such as our the smoke simulator) and point clouds.
Welcome to Celestia ... The free space simulation that lets you explore our universe in three dimensions. Celestia runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia doesn't confine you to the surface of the Earth. You can travel throughout the solar system, to any of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy. All movement in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets you explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters down to spacecraft only a few meters across. A 'point-and-goto' interface makes it simple to navigate through the universe to the object you want to visit. Celestia is expandable. Celestia comes with a large catalog of stars, galaxies, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and spacecraft. If that's not enough, you can download dozens of easy to install add-ons with more objects.
The goal of the CGAL Open Source Project is to provide easy access to efficient and reliable geometric algorithms in the form of a C++ library. CGAL is used in various areas needing geometric computation, such as: computer graphics, scientific visualization, computer aided design and modeling, geographic information systems, molecular biology, medical imaging, robotics and motion planning, mesh generation, numerical methods... More on the projects using CGAL web page.
ClusterViz is a software to visualize the clustering process using the family of k-means algorithms. The program is free software under the GNU General Public License (GPL). ClusterViz allows to cluster data while visualizing an up to three dimensional projection. The clustering process is visualized using OpenGL. As clustering algorithms the family of k-means algorithms is implemented, including mixture models.
This presentation was given as a scheduled talk at PyCon UK 2007. The material presented covered the following subjects: * Generating code from user interface descriptions with pyuic4 * Connecting signals and slots using auto-connection * Creating custom widgets with PyQt4 for use in Qt Designer
GDAL - Geospatial Data Abstraction Library Select language: [English][Russian][Portuguese][French/Francais] GDAL is a translator library for raster geospatial data formats that is released under an X/MIT style Open Source license by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation. As a library, it presents a single abstract data model to the calling application for all supported formats. It also comes with a variety of useful commandline utilities for data translation and processing. The NEWS page describes the November 2009 GDAL/OGR 1.6.3 release.
Googsystray is a system tray app for Google Voice, GMail, Google Calendar, Google Reader, and Google Wave. The idea is to be able to keep track of all that stuff without having to keep a bunch of browser tabs open, or constantly checking them. It notifies on new messages, alerts, etc., and provides basic services quickly (Reading or sending a new SMS message, or marking an email read, for example.)
These images are hemispherical panoramas, taken as addition to my Virtualvienna Project. You can find there some of the panoramas as full panorama in a bigger size than here.
