Course Description

This course deals with the basic theory of the computer graphics (CG). This course covers 3DCG modeling and rendering techniques, generation and processing of digital images and the computer systems for 3DCG production.
This course is related to diploma policy 2 and 3.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, students should be able to do the following:
- explain basic technologies in the CG.
- explain various modeling technologies.
- explain various rendering technologies.
- acquire the configuration of the computer animation.
- acquire the knowledge of the generation and processing of digital images.
- acquire the knowledge of the computer systems for 3DCG production.

Grading Policy

Grading will be decided based on repots (10%) and term-end examination (90%).
Feedbacks on reports and examinations will be given on LMS.
