Maglev Simulation
A high-performance OpenGL physics simulation with interactive controls and real-time 3D visualisations of magnetic levitation, demonstrating electromagnetic principles through interactive graphics.
The Problem
Understanding magnetic levitation physics requires expensive lab equipment. A real-time simulation would make the concepts accessible and interactive for students.
The Solution
Built a Python application using OpenGL for real-time 3D rendering of magnetic fields and levitation physics. Interactive controls let users adjust parameters and observe the effects in real-time.
Key Highlights
- Real-time 3D rendering with OpenGL
- Interactive parameter controls for experimentation
- Accurate physics modelling of electromagnetic forces
- Performance-optimised rendering pipeline
- Educational visualization of complex physics
- Cross-platform Python application
