draw a spaceship in matlab

To draw a spaceship in matlab, we need to use the patch command to create a 3D object by defining its vertices and faces. Here is an example code to draw a simple spaceship:


main.m
% Define the vertices of the spaceship
x = [0 0.5 0.5 0.2 0 0; 0 0.5  0.5 0.2 0 0; 0 0.5 -0.5 -0.2 0 0; 0 0.5 -0.5 -0.2 0 0];
y = [0 0 0.2 0.5 0.5 0; 0 0 -0.2 -0.5 -0.5 0; 0 0 0.2 0.5 0.5 0; 0 0 -0.2 -0.5 -0.5 0];
z = [0.5 0.5 0.2 0.2 0.5 0.5; -0.5 -0.5 -0.2 -0.2 -0.5 -0.5; -0.5 -0.5 -0.2 -0.2 -0.5 -0.5; 0.5 0.5 0.2 0.2 0.5 0.5];

% Define the faces of the spaceship
faces = [1, 2, 3, 4; 1, 5, 6, 2; 2, 6, 7, 3; 3, 7, 8, 4; 4, 8, 5, 1; 5, 6, 7, 8];

% Create a figure and axes
figure;
ax = axes;

% Draw the spaceship
p = patch(ax, 'Faces', faces, 'Vertices', [x(:),y(:),z(:)], 'FaceColor', 'red', 'EdgeColor', 'none');

% Set the axis properties
axis equal;
axis([-1 1 -1 1 -1 1]*1.5);
camproj('perspective');
view(30,30);
lightangle(-60, 30);
