I have been very busy getting all of my major project assets uploaded to my website, but I was still able to find some time to create a prototype of our proprietary network monitoring software! I used a software called Pixlr Editor, which is basically a free, online version of Photoshop. I have used this software to create graphics in the past, and I think this turned out pretty well. Because Wireless Defender is for business owners who might not be too aware of how networking works, I made sure that the interface was very clear and easy to read, compared to other network monitoring software.

As I mentioned in the last blog post, I have very little experience in 3D modeling, but I am very excited with how these turned out. My biggest resource was YouTube tutorials to figure out the majority of actually modeling the objects, but I struggled most with the coloring and texturing in Blender. I didn't take the 3D Modeling & Animation course at my school, but my friend did, so he helped show me how to manipulate lighting, coloring the shield and router, and texture the router with an image of grey fabric.

Computer Science Creativity/Innovation Technology As the date of Expo quickly approaches, I am beginning to think about my booth design and some elements that are crucial to efficiently and accurately displaying my project. Because my product/technology is very technical, and people who are not as familiar with radio frequency behaviors, I figured that the best way to display my project is through a 3D model/animation. I am using a software called Blender which I have used in the past to make 3D models, however I have never used this to animate. This animation will loop over and over in my booth, and I can use this as a reference to visually display the technical function of both the router and shield. So far, I have only developed the wireframe 3D model, and I still need to work on object texturing and shading to make it as realistic as I can. Tags:
