Prism | Group Project

Matlab C++ OpenGL Visual Studio

January 2018 - March 2018

This project consisted of the modelling and simulation of a physical phenomenon, in this case, a ray of light passing through a prism. I worked on this project in a group of 5 in the bachelor course Modelling and Simulation. The result of the project shows what the dispersion from a prism made of glass looks like when the prism rotates around its z-axis. The rotation consists of sending the angular velocity into a differential equation which then calculates the next position of the prism. A beam is sent through the prism which is refracted depending on the angle of incidence and the radius of output consists of a colour spectrum.
