| Formelle forudsætninger: | Students must have basic programming experience. While the required programming for the course will be in C/C++, a background in any similar language will suffice. |
| Læringsmål: | After the course, the student should understand the fundamentals of a projective rendering pipeline (such as OpenGL) sufficiently well to implement all of its primary components. In addition to this broad foundation, the student should have achieved additional depth of expertise in a relevant graphics topic of their choice. |
| Fagligt indhold: | This course provides a solid foundation in graphics programming at the implementation level. This is achieved by having the student implement the major components of a traditional projective rendering pipeline in C/C++, such as:
- modeling and viewing transformations
- perspective projection
- clipping and back-face culling
- scan conversion
- z-buffering
- per-face and per-vertex shading
- texture mapping and bump mapping
In addition, the student will be supervised in the acquisition of specialized knowledge in the graphics-programming area of their choosing. Example topics might include:
- ray tracing
- parameterized surfaces
- physical simulation
- particle systems |
| Læringsaktiviteter: | (Note: Prelimnary / subject to change.)
1) Eight weeks of foundational study in which text and online sources provide the background for in-depth programming assignments.
2) Six weeks of supervised project work. |
