2d Function Grapher

This application allows the user to graph time-varying patches in ℝ³, as well as visualize the gaussian curvature and mean curvature on every point of the patch over time, in real-time.

A "time-varying patch in ℝ³" is a function IxU->ℝ³, where I⊂ ℝ and U⊂ℝ².

Features

• Dynamic generation of CUDA kernels for fast computation
• Real-time (over 150 fps) rendering of dymanic patches
• Real-time (over 150 fps) computation of gaussian and mean curvature
• Rendering of user-defined functions over user-defined domains

Installation

1. Install my python game engine

git clone https://github.com/walley892/shapes
cd shapes
// possibly inside of a virtual environment if that's your thing
pip3 install -r requrements.txt
python3 shapes-application.py
