Create exciting apps for mobile devices using PhoneGap :

This book is a step-by-step guide about how to create a mobile app. Each chapter begins with the design of the user interface using wireframes as well as the data models using various diagrams. After the design, the chapter moves on to the implementation of the app, describing each block of code, including how it works and why it is needed in the context of the project. At the end of each project, various suggestions are proposed to help extend or enhance the project in order to stimulate your creativity and programming skills. If you are a developer looking to create a mobile app using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, this book is for you. While this book should be approachable for anyone looking to create mobile apps using PhoneGap, you should have some degree of experience using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You should also be able to create the basic PhoneGap project in the IDE of your choice (XCode, Eclipse, or Visual Studio). Understanding Java, C#, or Objective C is not required.

Turn your 3D modeling into photographic realism with this superb guide for SketchUp users. Through concrete examples, screenshots, and images, you’ll learn the practical side to photographic rendering using V-Ray. :

Every Sketch Up user wants to present their designs in the best possible light. What better way to bring them to life than to present them in a genuinely photographic manner? Although the V-Ray render engine has been available to SketchUp users for a good number of years now, the release of the 2.0 Version takes the production of photographic renders in SketchUp to a whole new level. Using the V-Ray for SketchUp rendering engine through with clear, step-by-step instructions and companion graphics, this guide will give you everything you need to get started. This book has been designed to progressively introduce you to all the V-Ray tools you will need to produce photographic renders using V-Ray. The journey begins with basics of camera composition, lighting, texturing, and then rendering an interior scene using the V-Ray engine. Using the scene files provided, we will learn how to set up lighting rigs for both daytime and nighttime interior shots, as well as seeing how we can make good use of V-Ray’s procedural day-lighting system on exteriors. As a render will only be as believable as the component parts, we will learn the texturing system in V-Ray and how to use a variety of materials, maps, and layers to produce realistic surface properties for our geometry. Before producing our final output, we will want to see how we can use the variety of quality control settings in V-Ray, including the Global Illumination and Image Sampling settings to produce a high level of quality for our project. Add the finishing touches with some compositing and post-production techniques to bring out the full potential of the work you have done.
