Making Movies with Matlab

Joseph Stover • October 24, 2007

Lecture slides in PDF and PowerPoint formats.
Matlab source code for the movies. This generates an AVI file.
Flash movie created from the AVI file produced by the above m-file, which was generated using indeo5 compression in Matlab.
Same as above in AVI format. This was generated using indeo5 compression in Matlab, then send to AutoGK/XviD for further compression.
Another movie: a system of differential equations with a varying parameter. This was generated using cinepak compression in Matlab.
