Jackie Shaw's Final Project
For my final project I simulated transparent water using Beziér surfaces with material and lighting. I also used Beziér surfaces to create a flower-like "lilly pad" on the surface.
This water is animated using a variable velocity which pulls the control points of the surface up and down. the sides of the tank are also transparent to make it appear like an aquarium of sorts. While the tank and water use transparency, the lilly pads and the boat do not. This project also incorporated a boat made by a previous CS307 student as the sunken ship.
