== Bounding Object Definition ==

Bounding objects will consist of a set of four points that define a visual rectangle (which can be a triangle if two points overlap)

== Thursday to do: ==

 * Write the View Model code that will be input to XNA project.
 * Use the ideas above with a "DrawableObject" that has a virtual function called draw. For now, we'll just have three child objects: DrawableSphere, DrawableTriangle and DrawableSquare.
 * Meet 2 - 5


== Models ==

Models for specific objects can be made in Blender by the Graphic Arts/Animation people in the future to pretty the objects up instead of spheres.

Program Flow

User requests to see a square.

  1. DB program collects the object in the square and produces a appropriate Square object for the consumption of the 3D Game. Inside that square object will reside
