Tilt Assignment

This posting is about my new Tilt assignment which I really enjoyed too much. I learned many , things about this technology. In the class, our instructor Dan explained to us Penguin and how it lets us work with mobile devices rotation and translation. I very excited to learn how Penguin technology works! I started thinking if it will be possible to rotate the 3D shapes while we are rotate our mobile? People who likes working with three dimension shapes be able to spend their time playing with shapes, converting shapes from one to another just by rotation their mobile? The idea came and I was eager to try to do it. This idea came while I was researching for shape recognition (club project). Through my research, I visited some interesting web sites like "WonderFl build flash online", and the HYPE framework . I was amazed from what these sites could provide, and the amount of information and codes available. All we need is to find a good idea to build on. It is not easy to obtain one, but codes have become available on the net through some open source Flash solutions. I was able to get the class of codes to rotate a 3D Shape by a mouse, then I got the classes I needed for mobile device rotation from Dan’s blog http://penguinsflash.wordpress.com/ . . I’m really happy because there are a lot of wonderful people who like to share their experience and their knowledge with all people around world.

This assignment enhanced my appreciation for beauty and impact of the technology. I was able to rotate the 3D Shape by using the Penguin Tilt Emulator. That was fun, but I got another idea of making a Bouncing ball game. I liked the idea; especially I’ll have a chance of doing some design. Which will help me to enhance my design skills and at the same time it will be a good opportunity to apply the Tween classes.
