Rebound
Rebound is a java library that models spring dynamics. Rebound spring models can be used to create animations that feel natural by introducing real world physics to your application.
Rebound is not a general purpose physics library; however, spring dynamics can be used to drive a wide variety of animations. The simplicity of Rebound makes it easy to integrate and use as a building block for creating more complex components like pagers, toggles, and scrollers.
Rebound uses the same spring constants as Origami making it easy to convert Origami interaction mockups directly into your Android application.
Here's a simple example of using a Spring model to drive scaling animation on a View. Check out the API reference to learn more.
// Create a system to run the physics loop for a set of springs.
SpringSystem springSystem = SpringSystem.create();
// Add a spring to the system.
Spring spring = springSystem.createSpring();
// Add a listener to observe the motion of the spring.
spring.addListener(new SimpleSpringListener() {
@Override
public void onSpringUpdate(Spring spring) {
// You can observe the updates in the spring
// state by asking its current value in onSpringUpdate.
float value = (float) spring.getCurrentValue();
float scale = 1f - (value * 0.5f);
myView.setScaleX(scale);
myView.setScaleY(scale);
}
});
// Set the spring in motion; moving from 0 to 1
spring.setEndValue(1);Press and release the photo to toggle a Spring from zero to one and observe the spring model drive a scaling animation. This demo is built using a JavaScript port of Rebound.
To include Rebound in your project, grab the latest prebuilt Jar file. ↓ Download Jar v0.3.7
Alternatively you can include Rebound from Maven Central via Gradle or Maven.
// Gradle dependency on Rebound
dependencies {
compile 'com.facebook.rebound:rebound:0.3.7'
}<!-- Maven dependency on Rebound -->
<dependency>
<groupId>com.facebook.rebound</groupId>
