    If you have been following this blog for a while, you might have noticed some recurring themes. Inverse Kinematics is definitely one them, and I have dedicated an entire series on how to apply it to robotic arms and tentacles. If you have not read them, do not fear: this new series will be self-contained,…

    After a long journey about the Mathematics of Forward Kinematics and the geometrical details of gradient descent, we are ready to finally show a working implementation for the problem of inverse kinematics. This tutorial will show how it can be applied to a robotic arm, like the one in the image below. The other post in this series can…

    This series of tutorials will teach you how use shaders for simulations; in particular how to use them to simulate fluids. This first post will focus on how to continuously process a texture using a shader. This technique is at the heart of most simulations and will be used in this series to implement shaders that simulate smoke and…
