Content

Introduction and motivation of basic concepts and techniques in computer graphics. Elementary data structures and algorithms are presented from many fields.
Topics are: Ray tracing, light transport, signal processing, textures, image filters, color representation and perception, OpenGL programming, 3D splines and surface and visualization techniques.
Objectives

Students know the most important algorithms and data structures for representing three-dimensional scenes (geometry, light sources, optical material properties, textures) as well as operations and methods for generating realistic images from 3D scene descriptions (rendering equation and OpenGL). You can implement simple rendering and interaction techniques.
