3D dancing robot in OpenGl

This project aims at creating a 3D robot and make it dance to some music using the polygon primitives in OpenGl and glut libraries.

The bot is assigned a material.

Four different light sources are created at different locations and are triggered randomly to give a better look to the dance.

The bot is animated to dance to some basic steps. The song is ‘The Surfin’ Bird’ by ‘The Trashmen’. Yes, I love Family Guy 🙂

The background has walls and a dance floor. Appropriate texture mapping is incorporated to each of these planes.

Along with the above, the sound is implemented in the same program using the windows libraries.

NOTE :

The code works only on Windows operating system. We can use it on any other platform without any sound. It uses the following libraries :

-windows.h
-mmsystem.h

Make sure to include the “libwinmm.a” file in the project parameters. I’ve used the DevC++ IDE.
