| Comments | Currently, most of the Looking Glass presentations are relying on flat 2D presentation tools (mostly OpenOffice.org). It'd be far better to have a 3D presentation tool in Looking Glass. The goal isn't to implement an OpenDocument compatible presentation tool, but instead create a tiny file format used by the tool, and provide some nice 3D transitions between slides. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

| Description | BlueJ? and Greenfoot are simple IDE's used in education to teach object oriented concepts and introduce students to programming. This project involves creating a series of sample lessons in either BlueJ? or Greenfoot that use lg3d to produce a visually interesting/engaging experience.
For example if you download BlueJ? you will find an example that deals with shapes. Users can instantiate circles and triangles and interact with them. How about instantiating 3D characters or vehicles and interacting with them in a 3D environment.
Applicants need to consider both the code development and the generation/aquisition of the 3D models/textures. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

How about making it so that programmers could use SVG to render to an LG SwingNode?? To do SVG, the student will need to find an open source SVG renderer. Or perhaps implement SVG on top of Java2D?, which already can render to a SwingNode?. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

| Description | Native windows integration for Windows XP %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |
|---|
| Comments | Native X11 windows run inside the LG desktop on Linux and Solaris. LG runs on Windows but not with the ability to run native Windows applications. The goal of this project would be to find a way to do this. This involves two aspects: capturing the output of Windows applications and getting them into a texture map, and routing raw keyboard and mouse events through the LG Picker, and keeping all of the events properly synchronized. This will probably be a BIG project. A good design will be considered a success even if it isn't fully implemented within the timeframe. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

| Description | BlueJ? and Greenfoot are simple IDE's used in education to teach object oriented concepts and introduce students to programming. This project involves creating a series of sample lessons in either BlueJ? or Greenfoot that use lg3d to produce a visually interesting/engaging experience.
For example if you download BlueJ? you will find an example that deals with shapes. Users can instantiate circles and triangles and interact with them. How about instantiating 3D characters or vehicles and interacting with them in a 3D environment.
Applicants need to consider both the code development and the generation/aquisition of the 3D models/textures. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

| Description | Implement necessary modifications in "SceneManager" so that GNOME panel runs in a reasonable manner in the LG3D? environment. This is considered as a migration step from GNOME to LG3D? - It allows the user to keep using some of the GNOME panel features like applet and start menu settings, while enabling taking advantage of LG3D? features. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

The implementation effort possibly includes desing of root menu that takes advantage of LG3D?'s capability (so maybe not like usual boring flat list of menu item texts), Look&Feel configuration consideration, desigining how to configure the menu contents, designing how to interface with the "SceneManager" (e.g. how to make it pluggable), etc. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

| Comments | Native X11 windows run inside the LG desktop on Linux and Solaris. LG runs on Windows but not with the ability to run native Windows applications. The goal of this project would be to find a way to do this. This involves two aspects: capturing the output of Windows applications and getting them into a texture map, and routing raw keyboard and mouse events through the LG Picker, and keeping all of the events properly synchronized. This will probably be a BIG project. A good design will be considered a success even if it isn't fully implemented within the timeframe. %EDITCELL{textarea, 10x60, 1x60}% |

Project Looking Glass Ideas | |

> | Here is a list of currently proposed projects. As a reference, you can also take a look at the 2005 final project list.
Please note that Project Looking Glass (LG3D?) is still under development. So, please expect to deal with bugs and limitations with the system.
We need strong participants who can overcome such limitations by identifying/fixing bugs and proposing (and even implementing) enhancements.
LG3D? doesn't have a full 3D widget set yet (except for some basic components).
It also has only a very primitive support for keyboard input and text rendering.
You should be prepared to deal with such lack of functionalities by implementing or extending some of these features along with your application.
As for references, you may want to check out the following pages:
You can find a list of current project proposals for LG3D? on the ProjectProposals06? page. | | |

< | Student Information
- The previous section has a few quick pointers to get you started with Project Looking Glass, but the OpenSource web page is the comprehensive and most up-to-date source of information on where to find whitepapers, pre-built binaries, source code and instructions on trying out LG3D
- You will also want to join the LG3D forum if you have any questions about Project Looking Glass or our participation in the Summer of Code 2006
- Take a look at the next section for project ideas for the Summer of Code 2006. You are welcome to pick from one of these topics or propose your own. Please use the LG3D forum for any questions regarding these projects or any proposals of your own.
| >
> | How to Get Involved?
- Read the Student FAQ by Google.
- Read the Contributing to Project Looking Glass document. All the development for Summer of Code will be managed as LG3D? incubator projects and will become publicly available under GPL. We intend to bundle the resulted work with a future version of LG3D?. The binary releases of LG3D? are available under BCL (Binary Code License). In order to allow us to do all of these without complications, we strongly request applicants to file your Joint Copyright Assignment (JCA) with the project. Please check out the Contributing to Project Looking Glass document for details.
- Check out the list of possible projects below on this page. You are welcome to pick from one of these topics or propose your own.
- Create an Wiki page for your submission under java.net. Please check out this java.net People Wiki page to learn how to create your own Wiki page. The Wiki page should include the following info:
- The Subject # and Title of the project you chose.
- A list of deliverables you plan.
- Explanation on benefits of the deliverables for the LG3D? community and users
- A detailed description and explanation on your approach. Please emphasis what is unique in your approach and design. Adding drawings of UI is a plus, if applicable.
- An approximate schedule.
- Your background (i.e. sales pitch for yourself ;-).
- Use the LG3D discussion forum if you'd like discuss ideas or ask clarifications regarding the project you are interested in.
- Once you created reasonable contents on your Wiki page, you have to use Google's Summer of Code application process which will be available starting May 1,. 2006. Please note that at the same time, you are expected to finish filing your JCA (Joint Copyright Assignment). In order to make the overall process simple, please let us say that submission of JCA is a mandatory requirement for your application to get accepted.
- Add a link to your proposal on the ProjectProposal page.
Please note that interest, even by a qualified student, does not mean that any of those project will automatically go ahead.
Depending on the number of projects, the number of people able to mentor and the timing
we will propably have to make a smaller selection.
