Computational Structures in Computer Graphics cap 4730
CISE UFL

This is an advanced undergraduate course on the concepts and principles underlying interactive gaming and graphics environments . The goal is to be able to build, not just use such environments, inluding the lighting and modeling of geometry. To make the concepts and principles concrete and prepare students for the workplace or graduate studies, the course uses the industry-standards of OpenGL and C/C++. In particular, students are expected to work with, understand and modify OpenGL example programs. Students will also benefit from refreshing their knowledge of linear algebra and calculus to understand structures rather than just examples. Familiarity with OpenGL is not assumed.
