by In this Blender tutorial series, we explain the essential Blender concepts and tasks that you need to know in order to create complex simulations. The idea is to create a series of brief tutorials on how to use Blender. These tutorials are specially designed for mechanical engineering, robotics, mechatronics, and machine learning students. The idea is to explain how to create animations of robots, drones, and similar mechatronics devices by using Blender. Also, we will create tutorials explaining how to use Blender for physics simulations and how to couple Blender with Python.
In this brief Blender tutorial, you can learn how to quickly render animations. First, to illustrate the rendering concept, we create a simple animation of a translating and rotating cube. Then, we render this animation by first creating a series of PNG images and then connecting them together to create a movie. This way of rendering is more advantageous compared to the direct rendering of a movie. This is because while rendering the movie, the rendering engine can experience bugs and problems. After many hours of rendering, we might discover that the things are not rendered properly. On the other hand, by rendering a series of images, we can have a more robust rendering process that is less prone to errors and bugs. The YouTube tutorial is given below.
