Computer Graphics

Computer graphics produces image data from 3D models, and computer vision often produces 3D models from image data.

On the machine side, techniques in computer graphics, operating systems, programming languages, and development environments are relevant.

Image-based virtual reality systems have been gaining popularity in computer graphics and computer vision communities.

Augmented reality (AR), also known as mixed reality (MR), is a form of 3D human-computer interaction that overlays real-time 3D-rendered computer graphics into the real world through a display, such as a handheld device or head-mounted display.

The definition of computational photography has evolved to cover a number of subject areas in computer graphics, computer vision, and applied optics.

The field of data and information visualization has emerged "from research in human-computer interaction, computer science, graphics, visual design, psychology, photography and business methods."

An inter frame is a frame in a video compression stream which is expressed in terms of one or more neighboring frames.

Carmack made innovations in 3D computer graphics

research award for computer graphics

computer-aided design and computer graphics systems

directs the UCLA Computer Graphics & Vision Laborator

As of 2020, he works on computer graphics for the Internet Initiative Japan (IIJ) Innovation Institute.

He is also one of the important early computer artists (and collectors), creating computer graphics and early digital art since the late 1950s.

is a rendering algorithm in computer graphics

Xiaolin Wu's line algorithm is an algorithm for line antialiasing.

It is often used also for multivariate interpolation, for example to resize or rotate a digital image.

The diamond-square algorithm is a method for generating heightmaps for computer graphics.

Bresenham's line algorithm is a line drawing algorithm that determines the points of an n-dimensional raster that should be selected in order to form a close approximation to a straight line between two points.

Sutherland-Hodgman algorithm is an algorithm used for clipping polygons.

midpoint circle algorithm is an algorithm used to determine the points needed for rasterizing a circle.

Visvalingam-Whyatt algorithm, or simply the Visvalingam algorithm, is an algorithm that decimates a curve composed of line segments to a similar curve with fewer points, primarily for usage in cartographic generalisation.

Catmull-Clark algorithm is a technique used in 3D computer graphics to create curved surfaces by using subdivision surface modeling.

Michael F. Cohen is an American computer scientist and researcher in computer graphics.

In computer graphics, marching squares is an algorithm that generates contours for a two-dimensional scalar field (rectangular array of individual numerical values). A similar method can be used to contour 2D triangle meshes.

He co-authored Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice along with J.D.

His research interests include scientific visualization, computer animation, photorealistic computer graphics rendering, multi-view stereo reconstruction, and augmented reality.

Marie-Paule Cani (born 1965) is a French computer scientist and researcher specializing in shape modeling and computer animation.

Henry Fuchs (born 20 January 1948) is an American computer scientist and pioneer in 3D computer graphics.

James Kajiya is a pioneer in the field of computer graphics.

Blinn (born 1949) is an American computer scientist who first became widely known for his work as a computer graphics expert at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), particularly his work on the pre-encounter animations for the Voyager project, his work on the 1980 Carl Sagan documentary series Cosmos, and the research of the Blinn-Phong shading model.

Donald Peter Greenberg (born 1934) was the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor of Computer Graphics at Cornell University from 1966 to 2025.

Luiz Carlos Pacheco Rodrigues Velho (born 5 June 1956) is a Brazilian applied mathematician working primarily on computer graphics and computer vision.

His research spans computational geometry, computer graphics, computer vision, machine learning, and robotics, with contributions including foundational data structures, the earth mover's distance for image retrieval, Metropolis light transport, and the PointNet architecture for deep learning on point clouds.

Williams was one of the first people to recognize the potential of computer graphics to transform film and video making.

Markus Gross (born June 14, 1963, Saarland, Germany) is a Professor of Computer science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zürich (ETH), head of its Computer Graphics Laboratory, and serves as Chief Scientist at The Walt Disney Studios as well as Director of DisneyResearch|Studios.

It is used in areas like computer graphics and games development where clipping of polygons is needed.
