Plants vs Humans vs Robots

Idea & Concept

My basic idea is to create an interactive background for a website. To combine this idea with the concept of Plants vs Humans vs Robots I decided to simulate a growing plant. The growth can be influenced by human website visitors.

Implementation

To implement my ideas I will use HTML, CSS and JavaScript. For my plant visualization I am going to use the JavaScript library d3.js from Mike Bostock. https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Gallery

So far the growth of the plant is based on simple randomized angle changes between branches of the plant. In future I want to replace the randomized angles by L-Systems.
