Responsive Face

I've been tinkerin with the new flex 2.0 Beta and what started as an effort to test ActionScript 3.0 math performance turned into something considerably more. Having always had a facsination with 3D math, I decided to write a simple 3D engine in flex 2 thinking it might be useful someday. While the usefulness remains to be seen, I had a lot of fun building this thing. Here are some of the highlighted features:

  • XML model definition
  • Ploygon surface styles (fill color, line color, alphas)
  • Symmetry math to mirror a model (see the face demo)
  • Vertex tweening so you can control a vertex’s movement
  • Animation Sequences to combine multiple vertex tweening groups (see the talking and/or kiss animations in the face demo)

!!!DEMOS!!! Note: These flex demos require Flash Player 9 or higher.

Welcome

As the content grows, my goal is that this site will become useful to a variety of software developers. In 10+ years of professional development experience, I have been exposed to a wide range of systems and platforms.

As I may not have frequent opportunity to update the site outside the context of my full time job and contracts, I will most likely kick this off by occasionally posting tidbits from my current projects in a manner that could be useful to someone "looking in" from the outside. In this way, even if no-one visits the site, at least I have a "demo" site to showcase some of my handy-work!

Feel free to take whatever you can and adapt it to fit your situation. It is not necessary to offer credit to me. But also keep in mind that anything you use from this site becomes yours as soon as you use it.

I look forward to interacting with fellow software engineers as it helps me to grow as well! I also get excited about helping jumpstart others who are facing tough situations. So, without further verbiage, let's get coding!

BTW - I expect a certain amount of "teasing" about my domain name and so I'll take it all in jest
I guess I was feeling particularly bold the day I registered it. If nothing else, I should get a few chuckles. As they say, laughter is the best medicine!
