Introduce - Implementing Examples

This final module discusses how to use the preceeding technologies cohesively to create an accurate simulation of a physical system. You needn't have selected your project to read this section, but you should understand the Labview, Networking, and Inventor modules.

The projects consist of three distinct parts: a physics server written in c which creates sockets and performs the physics computations, a user interface created with LabView which sends the chosen values of the physical properties to the server, and a visualization or rendering client written in c++ with Inventor which displays the physical system in action.

In addition, you will also be required to create a project website. More information pertaining to the creation of a website may be found __here__.

The connect section will discuss several projects in greater detail, explaining how each of the three components integrate. The apply section will check your understanding of the integration of the three parts of your project. The reflect section will explore the interconnectivity of a project of your choice. Lastly, the Extend section will begin your own project.
