  1. IAT 334 Lab 2 Computer Graphics: Rocket, PImage

  2. Outline • Programming concepts • Programming Computer Graphics • Transformations • Methods • Classes • PImage • PFont IAT 334

  3. Arrays • An array is a contiguous collection of data items of one type • Allows you to structure data • Accessed by index number IAT 334

  4. Effect of creating an int variable Code Effect Name: anInt, Type: int // Single int intanInt; // Put a value in the int anInt = 3; // Type error! anInt = “hello”; Name: anInt, Type: int 3 Name: anInt, Type: int “hello” Can’t shove “hello” into an int IAT 334

  5. Creating an array of ints Code Effect Name: intArray, Type: int[] // declare int array int[]intArray; // initialize int array intArray = new int[5]; // set first element intArray[0] = 3; // set third element intArray[2] = 5; 0 1 2 3 4 0 0 0 0 0 each element has type int 0 1 2 3 4 3 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 3 4 3 0 5 0 0 IAT 334

  6. Drawing a rocket background(0); fill(255); triangle(10, 0, 0, 20, 20, 20); rectMode(CORNERS); rect(5, 20, 8, 23); rect(12, 20, 15, 23); IAT 334

  7. Now I want to draw several rockets • Want several rockets in different locations on the screen • I could copy and paste the code • Need to adjust all the numbers for the new location • Or… define a method IAT 334

  8. First method for drawing a rocket void drawRocket() { fill(255); triangle(10, 0, 0, 20, 20, 20); rectMode(CORNERS); rect(5, 20, 8, 23); rect(12, 20, 15, 23); } Gotcha! Once you start using methods, all code must be in methods (can’t just directly call drawRocket() at the top of the file) IAT 334

  9. Didn’t seem to help much… • Still just draws a rocket at one fixed location • Need arguments that allow me to tell the program where I want the rocket! • Must figure out the relationship between the position and the location of the rest of the parts • Argument variables are available within the method, but not outside (method scope) IAT 334

  10. DrawRocket() with arguments void drawRocket(int x, int y, float rot) { final inthalfHeight = 10; final inthalfWidth = 10; triangle(0, -halfHeight, -halfWidth, halfHeight, halfWidth, halfHeight); rectMode(CORNERS); rect(-halfWidth + 5, halfHeight, -halfWidth + 8, halfHeight + 3); rect(halfWidth - 8, halfHeight, halfWidth - 5, halfHeight + 3); } We’re purposely ignoring the arguments for now IAT 334

  11. Using pushMatrix() and popMatrix() void drawRocket(int x, int y, float rot) { final inthalfHeight = 10; final inthalfWidth = 10; pushMatrix(); translate(x, y); rotate(rot); triangle(0, -halfHeight, -halfWidth, halfHeight, halfWidth, halfHeight); rectMode(CORNERS); rect(-halfWidth + 5, halfHeight, -halfWidth + 8, halfHeight + 3); rect(halfWidth - 8, halfHeight, halfWidth - 5, halfHeight + 3); popMatrix(); } IAT 334

  12. Classes IAT 334

  13. Classes • Java (Processing) is an object-oriented language • This means that parts of your program that you treat as conceptual things, become things (objects) in the program code • Objects are built from classes • Classes are the blueprint, objects are built from the blueprint • Objects are called instances of classes • Our rocket sure seems like a thing – let’s turn it into a class IAT 334

  14. Parts of a class • Classes define fields, constructors and methods • Fields are the variables that will appear inside every instance of the class • Each instance has it’s own values • Constructors are special methods that define how to build instances (generally, how to set the initial values of fields) • Methods are how you do things to instances IAT 334

  15. Defining the rocket class class Rocket { // fields float rotation = 0; float xPos; float yPos; final inthalfWidth = 10; final inthalfHeight= 10; // constructor Rocket( intinitialX, intinitialY, float initialRot ) { xPos = initialX; yPos = initialY; rotation = initialRot; } } IAT 334

  16. Using the class to create instances • Classes define a type • You can now declare variables of this type and initialize them using the constructor • Like arrays, the keyword new is used to tell Java to create a new object (hmm, so arrays must be objects…) Rocket r1, r2 ; void setup() { r1 = new Rocket(75, 10, 0); r2 = new Rocket(50, 50, PI/2); } • Nice, but my rockets don’t do anything (need methods!) IAT 334

  17. Adding a draw routine to our Rocket No Arguments! void draw() { pushMatrix(); translate(xPos, yPos); rotate(rotation); triangle(0, -halfHeight, -halfWidth, halfHeight, halfWidth, halfHeight); rectMode(CORNERS); rect(-halfWidth + 5, halfHeight, -halfWidth + 8, halfHeight + 3); rect(halfWidth - 8, halfHeight, halfWidth - 5, halfHeight + 3); popMatrix(); } Don’t need arguments because we use the fields But we could define additional arguments if we wanted to IAT 334

  18. Calling methods on objects • You call methods on instances • Think of the method as something your asking the object to do • For example, we can now ask the rockets to draw themselves r1.draw(); • In general, to call a method, take the name of the variable holding the object + “.” + the method name myObject.myMethod(); IAT 334

  19. What else do we want to do to the Rocket? • We may want to change the rotation rotateClockwise(); rotateCounterclockwise(); • We may want to give the rocket a boost fireThrusters(); IAT 334

  20. PImage IAT 334

  21. Loading Images • Loading Images • Give your project a name and save. • Place the image file in: • <processing dir>/sketchbook/<project name>/data/ • Use this code: PImage im = loadImage(“<image filename>”); IAT 334

  22. Displaying Images • image() shows your image. • image(im, 0, 0) will display your image from the last slide at the top left of the window. IAT 334

  23. Accessing Pixels • The PImage class allows you to access the RGB values of each individual pixel of the image, with the pixels[] array. • You can get the width and height of the image file using the width and height fields of PImage. IAT 334

  24. Accessing Pixels • How do we know which pixel to look for in the array? 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 IAT 334

  25. Accessing Pixels • How do we know which pixel to look for in the array? 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 0 IAT 334

  26. Accessing Pixels • How do we know which pixel to look for in the array? 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 0 1 IAT 334

  27. Accessing Pixels • How do we know which pixel to look for in the array? 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 IAT 334

  28. Accessing Pixels • Array Index • x + y*width 0 1 2 3 4 (4, 0) = 4 + 0*5 = 4 (3, 2) = 3 + 2*5 = 13 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 IAT 334

  29. Accessing Pixels • What would a piece of code look like that got a color from a pixel? • Let’s look at some applications of this. PImage im = loadImage(“test1.jpg”); color c1 = im.pixels[3 + 2*im.width]; // gets color at (3, 2) stroke(c1); // set our line color so we can draw with this color. IAT 334

  30. Window vs. Image • The drawing window also has a pixels[] array. • You must call loadPixels(); to get the image from the screen • You don’t need a PImage object. loadPixels(); color c2 = pixels[3 + 2*width]; // gives us the color at (3, 2) in the window. IAT 334

  31. Window vs. Image • When would we want to use both of these? • Use the Window’s pixels if you want to draw more things based on the image that’s already on the screen. • Use the Image’s pixels if you want to manipulate the pixels of the image before you draw them. IAT 334

  32. 2D Arrays • Java lets us make Arrays of Arrays, otherwise called 2D Arrays. These are very useful for accessing arrays of pixels like the ones we’ve been working with. int[][] bob = new int[3][4]; color[][] pixels2d = new color[200][200]; IAT 334

  33. 2D Arrays • Processing doesn’t provide us with a 2D array of pixels to use, so let’s develop a class that will make manipulating pixels easier. IAT 334

  34. 2D Arrays • Interestingly, 2D Arrays are just covering up a 1D array much like the pixels[] array. color[][] pixels2d = new color[20][20]; color c2 = pixels2d[3][2]; color[] pixels1d = new color[400]; color c1 = pixels1d[3 + 2*20]; Underneath, these two pieces of code do the same thing. The 2D array convention just makes it easier for us to access the array based on things like our x and y values. IAT 334

  35. PFont • PFont is the Processing class for manipulating fonts • Like PImage for images • Use PFont with • PFont loadFont() – loads a font • textFont(PFont font, int size) – sets the current font • text(String str, int x, int y) – draws a string in the current font at the current location • Also text(String str, float x, float y) IAT 334

  36. Simple example // the fonts must be located in the data directory PFont eureka = loadFont("Eureka90.vlw"); PFont zig = loadFont("Ziggurat-HTF-Black-32.vlw"); textFont(eureka, 44); text("word", 10, 30); textFont(zig, 44); text("word", 10, 60); IAT 334

  37. Use fill() to change the color of text // the fonts must be located in the data directory PFont eureka = loadFont("Eureka90.vlw"); PFont zig = loadFont("Ziggurat-HTF-Black-32.vlw"); fill( 0, 255, 0 ); textFont( eureka, 44); text( "word", 10, 30); textFont( zig, 44); fill( 255, 0, 0); text( "word", 10, 60); IAT 334

  38. textMode sets the alignment • textAlign( LEFT ); • x, y is the upper left hand corner of the text • textAlign( RIGHT ); • x, y is the upper right hand corner of the text • textAlign( CENTER ); • x, y is the upper center of the text IAT 334

  39. Producing text effects • All the transform methods apply to drawing text • That means you can translate, rotate, and scale text • Combined with draw(), this means you can move text around the screen in real time • Remember, the movement of the rocket and asteroids in our asteroids example was just translation and rotation • So you can make textual machines where text moves around the screen! IAT 334

  40. Processing example void draw( ) { image( im, mouseX-370, mouseY-210 ); color c1 = im.pixels[365 + 210 * im.width ] ; loadPixels(); c1 = pixels[ 3 + 2 * width ] ; stroke( c1 ); fill( c1 ); textAlign( LEFT ); ellipse( mouseX, mouseY, 20, 10 ); textFont( eur, 44 ); text( "Yo!", mouseX + 20, mouseY + 20 ); fill( 255, 0, 0); pushMatrix(); textAlign( RIGHT ); rotate( 0.2); textFont( zig, 44 ); text( "Yo?", mouseX, mouseY + 100 ); popMatrix(); } PImage im ; PFont eur ; PFont zig ; void setup() { size( 600, 600 ); im = loadImage( "cdshaw.96.jpg" ); for( int i = 600 ; i >= 0 ; i -= 50 ) image( im, i, i ); eur = loadFont( "Eureka90.vlw" ); zig = loadFont( "Ziggurat-HTF-Black-32.vlw" ); textFont( eur ); } IAT 334

  41. Reading time int hour() – returns the hour (0 – 23) int minute() – returns the minutes (0 – 59) int second() – returns the seconds (0 – 59) int day() – returns the day of the month (1 -31) int month() – returns the month (1 – 12) int year() – returns the four digit year (e.g. 2004) float milliseconds() – returns number of millis since start of app IAT 334

  42. Review • Graphics: triangle() draw a triangle pushMatrix() copy the top of the matrix stack translate() change XYZ location rotate() rotate about origin … draw in translated & rotated coordinates popMatrix() recover the previous matrix image( img, x, y ) IAT 334

  43. Review • Object Oriented Programming • Class -- a type you define • Instance -- one variable of a class • Fields -- variables within a class • Methods -- functions that act within a class • Constructor -- create an instance of a class IAT 334

  44. Review • Graphics/ OO Example • Rocket • Translated & rotated to its new location • Data of location stored within its class • Each rocket has its own location • And its own data! • PImage is also a class. • Each actual image is an object IAT 334
