Here's a version of solving inverse kinematics using CCD (Cylic Coordinate Descent). The prevoius methods were analytical methods, this one is iterative, and starts moving into solving for an N number of bones. The p5js sketch: editor.p5js.org/admiralra/sk...
In this version, we'll solve the IK using the intersection of two circles! P5js Sketch: editor.p5js.org/admiralra/sk... And the previous two sketches for the other two methods. editor.p5js.org/admiralra/sk... - Find Opposite Length editor.p5js.org/admiralra/sk... - Law of Cosines
I've also tweaked the other sketch using the law of cosines to add some visualizers editor.p5js.org/admiralra/sk...

Here are the slides from my math talk at Virginia Tech last week. They are very similar to my other recent talks about geometric algebra. There are 140+ slides here, but I obviously didn't get through all of them in one hour. terathon.com/vtmath_lengy...
And here are the slides from my game engine architecture talk at Virginia Tech last week. These are mostly an outline of the topics I discussed while showing a bunch of real-time demos, so they don't contain much of the content of the talk, unfortunately. terathon.com/vtgame_lengy...
