Introduction to WebGL


Details
An introduction to WebGL and shaders (GLSL), for those who have no experience of WebGL. In this session we'll cover the WebGL basics – set-up, basic interaction and simple animation.
The aim is to program a dice the user can "roll" with the mouse.
I'll keep the maths to a minimum (no quaternions, honest).
The demo code from the first workshop should provide a good foundation, but there will be plenty of pretty (and hopefully informative) slides available... quite probably on-line "handouts".
Arrival from 6:15 for a 6:30 start.
Prerequisites
A laptop with a browser that supports WebGL ( http://get.webgl.org/ ) and an editor.
Some knowledge of HTML and programming preferably Javascript (or similar).
