If you’re interested in learning more Schilder points to , a hub for all things fractal, including Boxplorer2. 'Zoom into the Mandelbrot set, revealing the self-similarity of this fractal at different scales. For those of you with the know-how, you can find Boxplorer 2 here - don’t get lost down there! Its a tool for assembling fractal zoom animation video from exponential strip keyframes with RGB and/or raw iteration data in EXR format - the colouring is controlled by an OpenGL GLSL fragment shader snippet with a few presets included (or write your own). He also says that he has a Razer Hydra and may be considering future support for it in Boxplorer2.īoxplorer2 lacks a front-end user interface and won’t be usable if you aren’t familiar with the command line. Yesterday I released zoomasm version 1.0 'felicitats'. Schilder told me that adding Rift support was fairly simple.
The low rez is also very apparent, since w/ fractals you tend to hunt for detail in the scenery.” (Click here for more info, instructions, and examples.
#Fractal zoom video series#
The lack of sense of scale makes your brain less willing to think it’s just weird goggles. It takes the output of KFs exponential map zoom sequences (a series of EXR images containing raw iteration data), and reprojects them into a sequence of flat frames. Drag on the image to draw a box, and the program will zoom in on that box. When asked about the experience inside the Rift, Schilder says, “Fairly immersive. Head tracking is supported in real-time rendering. While this video shows a pre-rendered scene, Schilder says that a powerful enough video card should be able to view it in real-time. A fractal rendering program called Boxplorer2 recently added support for the Oculus Rift, allowing you to create mesmerizing 3D fractals which you can fall forever into.ĭeveloper Marius Schilder added Boxplorer2 Oculus Rift support and used it to create an eerie Rift-ready rendering of a fractal known as a Mandelbox. An example of a Mandlebox fractal – photo creditįractals are intricate, infinite, and beautiful repeating patterns that are created from an equation.
