I am making a program that demonstrates an IMUs basic orientation function by rotating a cube in Max that looks similar to a physical multicolored transparent acrylic box the IMU will be housed inside. I am using an Arduino Uno and the Adafruit BNO055 IMU.

I have the IMU working well at rotating the cube accuratly in Max but I cannot seem to figure out how to make each side of the cube a different color (like the physical acrylic on will be). I built an .obj fle of the cube with the colored sides in Blender and exported it with its materials, read it in jit.gl.model, but it does not display the colored cube. I have tried to use the jit.gl.material object but it still wont show color. Any ideas?

Also, if I wanted to make this cube semi transparent (with color) and put balls inside the cube which "fall to the floor" when someone turns the IMU, how would that be done? So basically taking the jit.world example and make the "floor" always attract the balls when you rotate the worldbox so they always fall down to the bottom (imitating real-life gravity).

Looks like my OBJ file didnt have the material file with it or something. I followed this tutorial,

and now whe cube is showing the colors on each side. Now I just have to see if part 2 can be done. Transparent colored sides and gravity balls inside. Humm...
