Algodoo

Oh, by the way...

APRIL FOOL!

Hello Darkness my old friend... 🎶🫥

Is this years versions joke, that it actually works because of the white background? 😅Because nothing else happens on my end.

There are no images included in this scene. Either Xray forgot that images not displayed will not be saved or a blank screen is the joke. Code suggests the former.

Try it again, guys. I guess when you're as old as I am, PLUS be born on April Fools Day, anything can happen!

--T_RelBig, I aint yo friend.

This scene is against the Algobox rules, or the rules need to change. As far as I can figure out, the scene must be using my web cam to display my face.

OOPS! Sorry s_noonan... I'll try to fix that, but I'm rather busy so it might take a few months.... um... I mean weeks.

HOW DOES THIS WORK!? IT EVEN WORKS ON PHONES

It works by converting the display pixels into miniature video cameras. When combined over the total area of the display, I used a very special math function known as Fourier Transform that converts the varying light intensities into a focused image that can be transferred back onto the display screen. It took me many months of hard work to make it work, and I even surprised myself that I was able to do it. It was just a coincidence that I made it work on April Fools Day.


For anyone interested in the physics and math of how a standard glass lens does a Fourier Transform on varying light intensities to produce a focused image watch the following video:

Fourier Transform for beginners

hey xray... I have a question about the rules. Is it ok to collaborate with someone to make a marble race or an algothon divided in parts?

Yes, that's actually very common. No problem.

Instructions unclear: i accidentally crashed Algodoo.

what.?!
