Posted by Carlo on June 27, 2000 at 16:02:28:Hi Folks
I am looking for a program which can manage surface folding (e.g. paper
folding).
I need to show the animation of a surface folding onto itself, as you
would see when you fold a sheet of paper in two.
I just need a program (or extension to existing program) which can
output the MOVEMENT (or the morphing) of a surface folding against
itself (as a piece of paper would do when folded).
I am about to start a project which will be related to origami (the art
of folding paper) and I need to show some examples throuhout different
steps they involve.
I would like to avoid designing the ending stage of the movement: when
you got the start and the end it is quite easy... I would like to tell
the program: "this is the surface and this is my view-point (let's say
XXX degres), now, given an ending point (arrival) do create the fold".
This would eliminate and save me from drawing and creating all the final
states of the fold.
I think you get the point for sure!I hope to receive some hints from you, meanwhile, thank you very much
