software program for real time modelling and rendering three-dimensional graphics and animations.At this time Geist3D is only available for theMicrosoft Windows operating system.Overview
Geist3D began as a Ph.D. research project at the University of Victoria in 2001. It was originally designed as a robotics simulation tool, but over the past five years it has grown into a more general graphics engine that computes rigid body physics, generates planetary-sized terrain and renders skeletal based characters. Geist3D also provides a combination of Petri Nets and Lua scripts as a programming language to interpret virtual sensor input and control the parameters of a simulation. The editor has a comprehensive user interface to construct 3D models, Petri Nets, Lua scripts and OpenGL 2.0 shading language programs using drag-and-drop operations and integrated source code editors.
