After created modeling then do texture the body with color settings, after that we need to make rigging the character by using some joints and Ik handles.

After fixed the joints from foot to neck or head, here we need to require accurate settings with axis like X, Y and Z. Some axis are shows other angles, so we need to change the orientation  or other tool like cometJointOrient();

The cometJointOrient need to download from internet and save it in to your computer, then go to Maya application and click the right side MEL and select Script Editor menu and upload the file name as “cometJointOrient” from your computer storage, then after go and type the script as “cometJointOrient ();” and press enter, after that you will appear one wizard with name as “cometJointOrient” as above Screenshot-4.

Here you need to start or test the axis point direction and change it as per your requirement.

How to do 3d model of eyeball

How to make eyes 3d models in Maya?

The modeling 3d model of human eye of any object is required some reference images to develop the object structure, then need to do that go and search in internet and collect images with key word as “eyes transparent 3d modeling images” and download the images into your desktop or storage hard drive to use as reference in the Maya application modeling part.

Screenshot-1 | Maya eyeball

Now open the Maya application software from your desktop which already installed Maya software.

After this go to save and give file of your project name ex: (modeling eye.ma) and in the application have four views, here select the front views to import the reference image which already downloaded from the internet. It is useful for reference image to develop the object with Maya tools.

Now go to perspective of 3d view and go to the Polygon tool and select the “Polygon Sphere”, and press “3” for smooth and press key “5” for grey color to object visibility.

what is Gsm Gprs module embedded

What is the use of GSM or GPRS module interface with Microcontroller 8051?

The embedded system is an electronic component, which we make a mini or major projects. In the embedded system have developed tools kit, which is PCB AT89C51 board, RF module, Zigbee module, GSM or GPRS module and Wi-Fi connections and so on…

The developed projects tool kit was essential for the project implementation. If you didn’t found any device in market, then you can try to develop the device.

Let’s take an example: If you want to wireless communication of three phase submersible motor pump want to operate as ON and OFF, with your mobile phone or remote.

GSM / GPRS Module interfacing with 8051 | Relay

If you have a agriculture in your hometown, and also have submersible motor pump for water to the crop plantation in the agriculture field i.e., irrigation requirement implementation. If you are staying out of station or long distance at the other place, then you can prefer this GPRS module or Zigbee module both or wireless communication, but the range of distance of GSM / GPRS and Zigbee were different.

If you are staying out of station then consider the GSM / GPRS module, if you are staying near the place of range between 1feet to 1km then, consider module of Zigbee.

Zigbee module | Range 1m to 1km

You need SIM chord with recharge balance to operate the GSM / GPRS module is required. The communication modules can operate through commands with SMS in your mobile phone give below few commands for your reference. It will STOP and START the submersible motor pump through SMS commands for paddy or any type of water required crop cultivation to get good production from agricultural fields. 

Microcontroller 8051 | PCB board

To operate through AT commands for GSM / GPRS module interfacing with micro controller 8051 to operate with Mobile phones, computer and remote.

Phone control Command

• AT+CGMM means “Request model identification”

• AT+CGMR means “Request revision identification”

• AT+CSQ means “Signal quality”

• AT+CBC means “Battery charge”
