Location

This project was taken as part of the Association of Computer Activities (ACA) group at IIT Kanpur during my second semester at IIT Kanpur.


Brief summary of the work done in the project

  • A simulation of dynamical system of a large number of particles, moving under the influence of gravity.
  • Used the CUDA API along with C++ for parallel implementation of the simulation on a Nvidia GPU.
  • Implemented the visual realization of the simulation using the OpenCV library in C++.
