Codes of figures were found on [url]http://www.thomas-wolter.de[/url]
(This is a site in Germany but in English)

The work was done with the plugin "Simfonia Animation Tools".

preparation

Drawing of the Snake: 5 minutes (max)
Using the move command auto-repeat

Define the 24 groups (group) and place the 24 benchmarks group: 45 min
Markers positioned facilitate the management of events

Define a generic script: 15 minutes
The script performs the decoding of the sequence to the simulation time of angles
With us it is done in VHDL-AMS, but it can be done with EXCEL, MATLAB, C ...

Define association: 5 minutes
Our plugin allows each entity to define 3D
an association between a simulated value after a graphic file and an attribute
Here we make the rotation group driven angle values simulated

Generating animations

For each figure of the Snake: 2 minutes (max)
Simply import the sequence in the script and simulate
then run animation. The video is generated on the fly

The animation shown was produced by concatenating several sequences simulated.

One can make an export to the WebGL in one click.
Soon a site WebGL will be devoted to Snake.
