This document provides an introduction to computer graphics. It defines computer graphics as the creation, storage, and manipulation of models and images using a computer. The basic elements of computer graphics involve modeling, rendering, animation, and interaction. General applications include CAD, image synthesis, entertainment, desktop publishing, visualization, virtual reality, and multimedia. Specific examples discussed include computer graphics for movies, medical imaging, and computer-aided design.

2. Formal
Definition
Computer Graphics is generally concerned
with all aspects of using a computer to
generate images.
• Computer graphics: commonly understood to
mean the creation, storage and manipulation
of models and images
• Interactive Computer Graphics: user controls
contents, structure, and appearance of
objects and their displayed images via rapid
visual feedback

3. Basic Elements of CG
Many computer graphicsapplicationsinvolve:
• Modelling
- Choice of representation
• Rendering
- geometry, visibility
- mapping from‘real world’to ‘image space’
-Simulation of interactionof light with objects
Reflection, transmission, emission, refraction, diffraction and
interference.
• Animation
• Interaction

4. General
Applications
CAD
Image Synthesis
Entertainment
Desktop Publishing
Visualization
Virtual Reality
Multimedia
Graphical User Interface

5. Computer
Graphics for
Movies
The entertainmentindustry plays many important roles in
the field of computergraphics.
• Leaders in quality and artistry
• Not slaves to conceptualpurity
• Big budgets and tight schedules
• Constantreminder that there is moreto CG than
technology.

6. CG for Medical
Imaging (CG is noble!)
Influence from medical
applications:-
1. New data representationsand
modalities
2. Drive issuesof precisionand
correctness
3. Focus on presentationand
interpretationof data
4. Constructionof models from
acquired data

7. Computer Aided
Design
CAD has had the follow impact on computer
graphics.
1. Drives the high-endof the hardwaremarket
2. Integration of computing and display resources
3. Reduced design cycles (faster systems sooner)
