JOGL 3D Paddle Wheel

So far, we have learned how to create different geometrical shapes in JOGL such as triangle, cube and cuboid. Now, we will create a paddle wheel and try to rotate it.

To rotate a paddle wheel through coding, go through the below example: –

JPaddle.java

 package com.tutoraspire.jogl;   import javax.media.opengl.*; import javax.media.opengl.awt.GLCanvas; import javax.swing.JFrame; import com.jogamp.opengl.util.FPSAnimator;  public class JPaddle implements GLEventListener {         private float rotation = 0.0f;           @Override    public void display( GLAutoDrawable drawable ) {     GL2 gl = drawable.getGL().getGL2();    gl.glClear(GL2.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);    gl.glLoadIdentity();      gl.glTranslatef( 0f, 0f, -2.0f );     gl.glRotatef(rotation, 1f, 0f, 0f);        gl.glColor3f(1f, 0f, 0f);    gl.glBegin(GL2.GL_POLYGON);     gl.glVertex3d(-0.5,0.3,0.8);     gl.glVertex3d(0.5,0.3,0.8);     gl.glVertex3d(0.8,0.7,0.8);    gl.glVertex3d(-0.8,0.7,0.8);    gl.glEnd();     int paddles=40;    for (int i = 0; i < paddles; i++) {    gl.glRotated(360.0/paddles, 1, 0, 0);    gl.glBegin(GL2.GL_POLYGON);    gl.glVertex3d(-0.5,0.3,0.8);     gl.glVertex3d(0.5,0.3,0.8);     gl.glVertex3d(0.8,0.7,0.8);    gl.glVertex3d(-0.8,0.7,0.8);     gl.glEnd();     }      rotation -= 0.2f;       }        public void reshape(GLAutoDrawable drawable, int x, int y,    int width, int height) {     }    public void displayChanged(GLAutoDrawable drawable, boolean modeChanged,    boolean deviceChanged) {    }    @Override    public void dispose(GLAutoDrawable arg0) {            }    @Override    public void init(GLAutoDrawable arg0) {            }           public static void main( String[] args ) {        final GLProfile gp = GLProfile.get( GLProfile.GL2 );       GLCapabilities cap = new GLCapabilities( gp );                     final GLCanvas gc = new GLCanvas(cap);       JPaddle paddle = new JPaddle();        gc.addGLEventListener( paddle );       gc.setSize( 400, 400 );        final JFrame frame = new JFrame (“Motor Paddle”);       frame.add(gc);       frame.setSize(600,500);       frame.setVisible(true);               final FPSAnimator animator = new FPSAnimator(gc, 200,true);       animator.start();    }  }
