Synopsis:

The first part of the two-semester „Computer Graphics“ course is devoted to the specifics of digital display devices spanning from history up to the state of the art technologies. Further, a survey of fundamental problems in 2D computer graphics is given together with their solutions. Focus is put on mathematical description of problems and explanation of the corresponding algorithms using knowledge previously obtained in a variety of subjects available at FNSPE. The final part of the course covers the applications of computer graphics approaches in the process of authoring scientific documents and presentations.

Requirements:
