The j3d.org Code Repository   This site is devoted to the Java 3D code repository that we run. Within this code we keep a collection of useful utilities for almost any sort of Java 3D application. We encourage you to take and use this code, and especially to tweak and contribute to it to make it useful for more Java and Java 3D programmers. In fact, while this code is Java 3D specific, very little work needs to be done to use it with any other 3D graphics API, such as OpenGL. Author WebMaster    Last update 2003-05-26  English

gluLookAt Subroutine with pseudocode   The gluLookAt subroutine multiplies the top matrix of the current matrix stack with a matrix M (computed below), whose effect is to place the eye point at the origin, the center point along the negative z axis, and the up vector somewhere in the YZ plane, above the z axis. This is done through pure rotation and translation, preserving all distance metrics. Author WebMaster    Last update 2003-01-21  English

Understanding and Using OpenGL Texture Objects   With the advent of the OpenGL 1.1 specification, texture objects became part of the API. These texture objects have been available for quite some time as extensions to OpenGL 1.0 because of their incredible performance benefits. However, not everyone is aware of what texture objects are and why they are useful. Texture objects can improve your textured rendering performance by more than 10 times using the same hardware. That's a pretty bold claim, and I can demonstrate it with ease. Author Richard Wright    Last update 2002-12-12  English

The Mesa 3-D graphics library   Description and links Copyright (C) 1999-2000 Brian Paul All Rights Reserved    Last update 2002-10-04  English Mesa is a 3-D graphics library with an API which is very similar to that of OpenGL. While Mesa is not a licensed OpenGL implementation, it is currently being tested with the OpenGL conformance tests. For the current conformance status see the CONFORM file included in the Mesa distribution. Despite these technical/legal terms, you may find Mesa to be a valid alternative to OpenGL. Most applications written for OpenGL can use Mesa instead without changing the source code.   Mesa3D
