CGT 52100 - Advanced Real-Time Computer Graphics


Credit Hours: 3.00.  This course focuses on a working knowledge of real-time rendering and shaders using GPI. Students will learn how to program advanced computer graphics techniques and how to benefit from the existing graphics hardware in an efficient way. The main focus is on programming modern graphical processing units (GPUs) using the GLSL, CG and OpenGL. Students will learn what the data-flow programming model is, and how to write vertex, geometry, tessellation, and fragment shaders. Another output is using texturing and lighting on the low level of the GPU and the next step is to provide animations using vertex shaders. Advanced texturing techniques such as bump mapping or environment mapping will be explained. Permission of instructor required. Typically Fall Spring Summer.Credits: 3.00
