used. Understand the two dimensional graphics and their
transformations. Understand the three dimensional graphics and their
transformations. Appreciate illumination and color models.
Be familiar with understand clipping techniques.
UNIT I INTRODUCTION
Survey of computer graphics, Overview of graphics systems – Video display devices, Raster scan systems, Random scan systems, Graphics monitors and Workstations, Input devices, Hard copy Devices, Graphics Software; Output primitives – points and lines, line drawing algorithms, loading the frame buffer, line function; circle and ellipse generating algorithms; Pixel addressing and object geometry, filled area primitives.
UNIT II TWO DIMENSIONAL GRAPHICS
Two dimensional geometric transformations – Matrix representations and homogeneous coordinates, composite transformations; Two dimensional viewing – viewing pipeline, viewing coordinate reference frame; widow-to-viewport coordinate transformation, Two dimensional viewing functions; clipping operations – point, line, and polygon clipping algorithms.
UNIT III THREE DIMENSIONAL GRAPHICS
