Physically accurate gull wing simulation based on published zoology research
nptacek · x · 2026-11-13
For day 12 of #codevember, developer ajcbuilds released "Feather," a physically accurate bird wing simulation. The model is based on a gull's skeletal system, with bone proportions, joint mechanics, and feather layout taken from published zoology research, built with three.js/react-threefiber and WebGPU. It's playable online and fully open source. A cool demo with real craft — turning research papers into real-time 3D simulation is a pattern worth noting for creative coders.
