Initial Check-In and Initial Thoughts
Updated Oct 28, 2010 by Spaceman...@gmail.com

The initial check-in for the project includes all of Google's O3D JavaScript API. It includes Google's hellocube.html. After changes to the

<script>
paths, this works. I also started on hellosphere.html. Since atoms are represented as spheres, we have to figure out how to create and render them.

Near term tasks:

  • Draw a sphere
  • Draw 8000 spheres in a few colors and note performance.
  • Move eyepoint based on keyboard input and/or UI buttons.
  • Read PDB file and convert to JSON
    • This probably has to happen in a servlet
    • Assume the atoms in a protein are stored as an array of hashtables
    • Each hashtable hold data for a single atom with keys like X, Y, Z, AtomId, AANumber, Type, AAType (where AA stands for Amino Acid)
