Simple 3D Solar System model created in C++/OpenGL/GLFW. The repository contains: If you just want to run the application, in the bin folder you will find executable files for x86/x64 OS. If you want open project in Visual Studio, just open the file DiamondEngine.vcxproj.

The sun is placed at the center with the planets rotating around the sun. Lighting and axis are included. The user can navigate through the Solar System along x, y and z axis using appropriate keys. Other features include Scaling and Perspective view. - codeaprendiz/solar_system_openGL_project

A real-time, interactive 3D visualization of the inner solar system—featuring the Sun and seven planets—orbiting under realistic relative distances, sizes, and motions. Built with OpenGL, GLUT, and SOIL for texture mapping, this program demonstrates lighting, texture mapping, and simple orbital mechanics in C/C++.

Feb 13, 2025 · We’ll leverage the power of OpenGL and C++ to create a stunning simulation of our solar system, featuring rotating planets and showcasing essential concepts like transformations, lighting, and texture mapping for added realism.

Apr 17, 2013 · In this article, you will see a simple 3D solar system implementation with OpenGL and C#. In the demo, you will learn how OpenGL rotation works and how to rotate a mesh around an arbitrary axis.

May 19, 2015 · We have seen many good programs on Solar System in OpenGL. Today we are going to present you a mode 3D modeled version of solar system graphics program. You might encountered the previous very simple solar system opengl program which remain at the top seen post on this blog.

This project showcases a 3D visualization of the solar system using OpenGL with C/C++. The goal was to create an interactive representation of celestial bodies, including the Sun, planets, and Saturn's rings.

Jun 4, 2019 · This project illustrates a simple solar system in a 3D space where the planets will have retrograde motion towards the sun.

Welcome to the Solar System Simulation! This project is a 3D simulation of the solar system using C++ and OpenGL. Accurate (relative to earth) representation of the day/night cycles of the planets in the solar system. Free fly camera for exploring the solar system. Ability to control the flow of time, stop it and even reverse it.

This document contains C++ source code for rendering a 3D solar system simulation using OpenGL. It defines variables for the radii and rotation speeds of the planets, as well as functions for initializing materials, rendering the scene, and handling user input.
