Experience stunning 3D male flowing patterns inspired by Lissajous patterns and Spirographs, perfect as a screensaver. Watch as the patterns transform and ripple with beautiful colors. Export patterns as images, videos or 3D animations with numerous examples to choose from.
Lissajous 3D is an impressive software that lets you create harmonious and beautiful 3D patterns of Lissajous and spirographs. The patterns flow and transform with ripples of colour and light. You can even wrap any picture over the patterns to make them twist and turn like reflections in a hall of mirrors! The original 2D Lissajous patterns were traced by a beam of light reflected from mirrors attached to two tuning forks in the C19. But now, you can take them into the 3D realm by using vibrations in three or more directions.
Lissajous 3D lets you trace these curves using a ribbon, or a tube. You can also make spirographs, those patterns made by rolling wheels within or around each other. Furthermore, you can add 3D spiral effects to the spirographs. What's more, the software includes a randomiser that helps you generate new patterns of your own. You can even show off your animations by using its screensaver feature. You can choose any music you like for it, or set it to select tunes at random from a folder or cd.
Moreover, you can set the patterns to respond to chords played in the companion program Tune Smithy, and vice versa. Tune Smithy's fractal tunes can accompany the screensaver. Lissajous 3D also comes with many pattern transforming effects, some related to real world Lissajous patterns. The software lets you add magnet, inversion (turn inside out), friction, etc. You can also let the frequencies drift so the patterns continually change shape.
Lastly, Lissajous 3D has many ribbon or tube forms, including star cross-section tubes, twisting tubes and bead effects, strings of spheres, and ripples. You can even add fog to have shapes that disappear in and out of the mist. What's more, you can save movies or images in many formats, export 3D animations in Obj format to import into other 3D programs, or automatically make a web site gallery of all your Lissajous 3D animations or images in one go. Overall, Lissajous 3D is an impressive software for creating mesmerizing 3D patterns that are sure to impress.
