G2FSpecific information
The course can not be included in degree together with TSBK07.
Course offered for
- Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering
Prerequisites
Linear algebra. Programming knowledge.
Intended learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student should be able to:
- Goal 1: describe the calculation models used in computer graphics for how a synthetic scene is built.
- Goal 2: construct synthetic three-dimensional scenes and generate images and animations of these.
- Goal 3: based on this knowledge, design and implement interactive 3D graphics like simpler virtual worlds, 3D games etc.
- Goal 4: implement shader programs (programming of graphics processors).
Course content
The course describes the principles and methods for computer generation of synthetic images, animations and interactive graphics applications.
Real-time animation with OpenGL (3.2 or higher) including shader programming with GLSL.
Three-dimensional graphics: geometric transformations, projection, perspective.
Object representation. Light models and shading, Gouraud and Phong shading. Texture mapping. Visible surface detection. Frustum culling, billboards. Animation, basic collision detection.
Teaching and working methods
Lectures, lab exercises and a project. The lecture series can be followed on Campus Valla but is also recorded.
The course runs over the entire spring semester.
Examination
| TEN1 | Written examination | 2 credits | U, 3, 4, 5 |
| LAB1 | Laboratory work | 2 credits | U, G |
| PRA1 | Project, oral and written examination | 2 credits | U, G |
