project:
1.introduction
my project idea comes from the moving planet, like the earth rotates around the sun along a certain orbit, my technic is to use the Arduino control max 3D object's animation and simulate the running planet, unlike the planet in the universe ,their moving rules are relatively stable, but I can change the my planet orbit by arduino or some physical stuffs.
2.method
in my project , my technic structure is to have 2 gridshape - sphere,one is moving around another one , and they relatively have 2 a mophing effect- jit.xfade, can change size or change shape ,I have 2 choices to control them to move ,one is automatically animated, because i give those element ，like jit.gl.light position, shape position and fade parameters continuously but selected bangs, so they can run automatically with certain speed.another is to use Arduino to control the moving state, this way is a little bit "crazy",but interesting.

Q: how to change the layer of different object in different time
4.conclusion
1.when We use the jit.fade function, we should remember to have the jit.gl.mesh, then all those parameters should connect to it instead of jit.gl.gridshape ,and jit.material is also very helpful to give then a smooth fill.
2.If we want to control 3D object to animated in a regular way ,the parameter of match between time and position is really impotant, need lots of try , maybe there is some other easy way to realize that.
3.there many possible I can try with this patch, for example to change this object into particle.
