Develop Taj Mahal OpenGL Project in Computer Graphics

31 comments
Taj Mahal (ताज महल), is the symbol of love. It  is a white Marble mausoleum located in Agra, INDIA. It was built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal. For more info read wikipedia.

Here, we are going to develop basic structure of Taj Mahal in computer graphics. In this tutorial I will tell how to make Taj like structure using the OpenGL. We will develop simple structure, not exactly same as it looks in real but some what idealistic. This project is mainly mean for the VTU Computer Graphics mini-projects.




Taj Mahal is basically a structure with many minars and gumbazz. We will use the simple objects like spheres and cubes to build these units. First for the main part we use box or a large cube and then point small sphere over them. Thereafter, we place a small cubical structure with very low height, a egg like sphere is also placed over it. Similarly,we going to place four long minars over each four corners.

We are also developing the wired framed structure of the Taj as well. In the wired framed Taj, the large cube block will go transparent and the two tombs will be place in the middle with small cubes.

Lets start coding!



/* Draw the bottom box */
glPushMatrix();
glScaled(0.8,0.04,0.8);
glTranslatef(0.0,-30.2,0.0);
glutSolidCube(7.0);
glPopMatrix();

    //main cube
    glTranslatef(0.0,-.6,0.0);
glutSolidCube(2.0);

//main gumbazz
glPushMatrix();
glScaled(0.8,1.0,0.8);
glTranslatef(0.0,1.5,0.0);
glutSolidSphere(0.8,80,120);
glPopMatrix();

glTranslatef(0.0,1.0,0.0);
glScaled(1.2,0.25,1.2);
glutSolidCube(0.9);

//gumbaz pointer
