COSC 4332. Computer Graphics. 3 Hours.
Students explore graphical APIs for developing graphical user interfaces and multimedia applications. They work with technologies such as PHIGS, Windows, Presentation Manager, X-Windows, digital video, and other relevant tools. Students apply 2D and 3D transformations, create interactive 3D graphics using OpenGL, and implement shading, lighting, texture mapping, and animation techniques. The course emphasizes both the mathematical and geometric foundations of computer graphics and the practical skills needed to build complete 3D graphics programs.
Prerequisite: 6 advanced hours of COSC.
