This is an advanced undergraduate course on the concepts and principles that underlie current and emerging methods, tools, and techniques for (i) interactive graphics environments, (ii) basic illumination and (iii) modeling of curved geometry (think of camera, light and actors). There is an initial steep learning curve for students not familiar with C or C++ and for students no longer familiar with basic linear algebra or calculus. Familiarity with OpenGL is not assumed. But students are expected to work to understand and modify OpenGL example programs and example linux makefiles for compilation. Structures underlying graphics and practical implementation are emphasized. (This is not a programming course)Computational Structures in Computer Graphics cap 4730
