ABSTRACT
This assignment supports the key concepts in a first course in Computer Graphics for students in Computer Science and Engineering: modeling, geometry, transformations and interaction. The core of the assignment is to create a maze that can be walked through via the mouse or other interactive tools. The maze should have only one entrance and one exit. The walls are planes extruded from the floor.
