6. Moon

Task 2: Draw 3D world space, Mark Origin Point and four corners of the ground
using code given below:

Origin ? x-axis ? , y axis ?, z axis? Minimum(x,y,z) of floor ? Maximum (x,y,z) of floor ?

Write your suggestions for glOrtho(?,?,?,?,?,?) and gluLookAt(……?.......);

Draw your establisthed View volume in world space to show how much of your scene is
covered by view volume.

Task 7: Start with Skeleton Code and Finalize display routine to create First view of your 3D scene

Perspective Camera if ortho =0 Orthogrphics Camere if ortho =1

void display() Set Multiple viewports and show all
{ views
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | if (ortho==1) //
GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); {

if (ortho==0) //Perspective view }

{
//Place the camera and set target
glutSwapBuffers(); //Double Buffer
//Define Viewing Volume }

//Draw Objects
drawEverything();
drawFloor();}
Target view
