Growing HPCG logo

Video of simulation of growth of simple trees restricted by environment with L-systems. This animation was made to demonstrate power of my L-system framework Malsys and to have fun with L-systems. Whole simulation is one L-system using sub-L-systems for leaves and blooms. Article contains detailed description how was this L-system written and how animation was produced.

Malsys - Marek's L-systems

Highly modular L-system processing library with web interface and gallery. Malsys supports advanced L-system features like context rewriting or parametric L-systems as well as some unique features like rewriting symbol as another L-system. This project was done as my bachelors work at Charles university in Prague. Read on ...
