MATLAB Demonstrations

I found the "Viewing a Penny" very interesting. It was intriguing how MATLAB was able to represent the surface of a penny using topography. Also, I was interested by the color choice of the psuedocolor plot that showed the penny in colors proportional to the height of the surface of the penny at the point. Finally, it was really fascinating to see the penny represented on a copper, 3D surface plot with the Laplacian lighting model as I hadn't previously thought about how real life objects could be represented in MATLAB.
