Produktinformationen zu „An Introduction to Computer Graphics and Creative 3-D Environments “
This book introduces the fundamentals of 2-D and 3-D computer graphics. Additionally, a range of emerging, creative 3-D display technologies are described, including stereoscopic systems, immersive virtual reality, volumetric, varifocal, and others.
Interaction is a vital aspect of modern computer graphics, and issues concerning interaction (including haptic feedback) are discussed. Included with the book are anaglyph, stereoscopic, and Pulfrich viewing glasses. Topics covered include: - essential mathematics, - vital 2-D and 3-D graphics techniques, - key features of the graphics, - pipeline, - display and interaction techniques, - important historical milestones.
Designed to be a core teaching text at the undergraduate level, accessible to students with wide-ranging backgrounds, only an elementary grounding in mathematics is assumed as key maths is provided. Regular 'Over to You' activities are included, and each chapter concludes with review and discussion questions.

Rezension zu „An Introduction to Computer Graphics and Creative 3-D Environments “
From the reviews:"The author has done a fine job ... . He illustrates the book with well-chosen quotations, at the beginning and end of every chapter and section. ... This book is suitable for an undergraduate or graduate introductory course on computer graphics, with an emphasis on 3D. ... The book ends with a long list of references ... . I consider this book to be very interesting and useful. I recommend it to anybody in 3D computer graphics, including students taking a course on the subject." -- O. Lecarme, ACM Computing Reviews, January, 2009
