Abstract

Stone skipping is an example of rigid-fluid coupling, which typically need much computation. In this paper, we present a real-time method for visually plausible stone skipping simulation. Based on the Newtonian physics, an intuitive dynamics model is presented to simulate the linear and rotational motions of the stone. We also present a modified water surface model for the waves due to the bounces of the stone. For more realistic user experiences, the real-world stone is substituted by the Wii Remote connected to the host PC. User just throws the controller (strapped to his/her wrist), and our implementation shows the real-time simulation of the bouncing process of the virtual stone.
