Abstract

From the Publisher:3D Graphics: A Visual Approach presents a visual introduction to the exciting world of computer graphics and covers important rendering techniques including bump, texture, and environment mapping. Through a technique called Visual Analysis, a reader learns to identify graphics effects visually by looking for a few cues. Cues and concepts are presented progressively, with more complex cues building from simpler ones. The material covered in this text will provide students with a good feel for the range and visual effect of rendering algorithms.. "The book serves well as a main text in a survey course in computer science or as a useful supplement in a programming or 3D design course.
