Some of you may remember this series of posts from the beginning of the year (I also mentioned it in the last post). It showed how you might use AutoCAD and .NET (in this case via F#) to animate the Star Wars opening crawl for the first 6 movies. Back then I said I'd update […]

Happy Friday! It's time to unveil the completed Star Wars opening crawl inside AutoCAD… After an intro and seeing various pieces implemented, in today's post we're going to add the crawl text and animate its movement into the distance.

Taking a rest from my AU prep, I headed across to Zurich last night for an F# meetup focused on machine learning. Primarily because I'm interested in machine learning as a field but also because it seemed a good opportunity to dust off my F# skills. It was interesting to be on the train when […]

I'm currently in Boston for an internal technical summit where I'll be presenting sessions on Kinect Fusion and Leap Motion (which will the sessions I've submitted - and will hopefully get accepted - for AU 2013). I arrived a day early and rented a bicycle from the hotel, taking the opportunity to cycle through the […]

Or otherwise named "Creating an AutoCAD jig to dynamically display a guilloché pattern using F#". But then why pass up the chance for a Jerry Maguire reference? 🙂 Anyway, to continue on from last week's post, Doug – who had presented the original challenge – went on to suggest that I give it the same […]
