OneStone® Pebbles are a new series of calculus visualization tools developed
by Bright Ideas Software®.
Each 'Pebble' in the series is a stand-alone
program designed to illustrate a specific topic in the calculus
syllabus. While the topic of each Pebble is different, the experience
of using each remains as constant as possible, and features several
elements identified as contributing to the development of a deeper
understanding of dynamic covariant relationships. The Pebbles use JOGL
for their interactive 3D rendering. Try the
Curve Families and
Surfaces of Revolution examples!
