Welcome to the CS488/688 Hierarchical Modelling (A3) Gallery!

For the third assignment, each student is required to make a hierarchical puppet model. The only requirements are that the puppet have a body, arms, legs, a head, and a nose on the head. The assignment then requires the implemention of a UI to pick an arm, etc, and rotate the joint.

Most students have a simple puppet model, but several have made more elaborate models. The best models are shown here.

The course used to be taught on SGI Indigos. At that time, a robot model was made out of boxes. When the course switched to SGI Octanes, robots became puppets, with spheres replacing the boxes. Now the course uses Linux PCs equipped with somewhat powerful GPUs, allowing even greater variety.

Using the Indigos, the puppet was only a box robot. Some students still managed to make interesting models.
