HA7 Task 1 - Applications of 3D

3D in games

The first ever 3D game was 3D Monster Maze which was released on a commercial games machine. It was developed by Malcolm Evans 1981 for the Sinclair ZX81 platform. The game awarded points for each step the player took without getting caught by the Tyrannosaurus Rex that hunted them in the 16 by 16 cell.

In the fifth generation the most 3D games started to be more released. While there were games prior that had used three dimensional environments, such as Virtual Racing and Star Fox, In star Fox the environment was made up of space projectiles like other spaceships and buildings.
With the power of what 3D games can now produce people were able to make huge worlds for players to explore like skyrim.With a full open world 3D game with graphics that were mindblowing for the time especially on the PC skyrim shows just how much both the technology to run games has improved and how much better they run,Tthe people would have never dreamed of a game such as skyrim
3D in Films

The first 3D animation in a film was in the 1976 movie called Futureworld, where A 3D animation of a rotating palm and face made of polygons is shown. This was actually the world's first 3D animation rendered in 1972.


In this era people are now able to create 3D spectacular movies like Avatar which was one of the most amazing films in 2009, Avatar was that one film for people to show off what they can really create when it comes to 3D and CGI 




3D in TV



3D in medicine

3D is used in medicine for CT scans they can create a model of the inside what they scan and then look at the inside and determine what's up with the patient


3D in engineering
3D is used in engineering to create a model of what they want to make before they make it and test certain pressures on the construction and see if it holds up





3D in architecture 
3d in architecture is used to show off the blueprints off a building before it gets built.
