Parameters

The parameters that can be changed through the browser are as follows:

Camera Rotation

Euler angles for rotating the camera about the focal point.

Fractal Rotation

Euler angles for rotating the fractal about the origin.

Translation

A translation of the fractal applied before the camera is rotated

Parameter

The parameter c in the map q²+c.

Focal Length

Distance from the camera to the image plane

Frustum Depth

Distance from the image plane to the far plane

Scale

This parameter determines the scaling matrix S_q discussed in section . S_q scales the size of the frustum in quaternion space, so larger scaling values will make the fractal appear smaller.

Maxiter

The maximum number of iterations of the function to do. This parameter is generally kept rather low. This has the effect of tracing out a level set of equal potential. These so called level sets are much smoother than the actual fractal boundary, which in most cases is not even differentiable.

Threads

This parameter specifies the number of threads to use to fill the depth buffer.

Delay

This parameter specifies the number of seconds of inactivity required before the browser will refresh the rendering window at a higher resolution. A value of zero disables this feature.
