Weighted Voronoi Stippling Algorithm Implementation - Coding Challenge
Offered By: Coding Train via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the artistic technique of weighted Voronoi stippling in this 29-minute coding challenge video. Learn to implement the algorithm using p5.js and the d3.js Delaunay triangulation package. Dive into concepts like Delaunay triangulation, Voronoi diagrams, and Lloyd's relaxation algorithm. Discover how to calculate polygon vertices, areas, and centroids. Apply these techniques to create stippled images based on pixel brightness. Gain hands-on experience with coding examples, including drawing dots, calculating weighted centroids, and using delaunay.find(). Get inspired by various applications and extensions of the technique, with multiple p5.js Web Editor sketches provided for further experimentation.
