force-over-acceleration.js

A 3-D particle physics simulator powered by WebGL.

About

This is a port of my force-over-acceleration project from Python to JavaScript. The intention is to create a web application that is able to run on numerous platforms.

Motivation

I have always taken a keen interest in physics, so I have actively searched for ways to combine it with computer science. I came up with the idea for this project while pondering the Simulated Reality Theory. I hope to advance the project to the point where highly complex visual simulations are possible.

Future Features

Particle interaction logic
Approximation algorithms (Barnes-Hut)
Offload calculations to GPU
Import simulation files
Improved graphics and textures
Debug data and framerate information
Keyboard commands for controlling the simulation
