Pages : 451
Book Description
This book is a collection of several tutorials from the EUROGRAPHICS '90 conference in Montreux. The conference was held under the motto "IMAGES: Synthesis, Analysis and Interaction", and the tutorials, partly presented in this volume, reflect the conference theme. As such, this volume provides a unique collection of advanced texts on 'traditional' com puter graphics as well as of tutorials on image processing and image reconstruction. As with all the volumes of the series "Advances in Computer Graphics", the contributors are leading experts in their respective fields. The chapter Design and Display of Solid Models provides an extended introduction to interactive graphics techniques for design, fast display, and high-quality rendering of solid models. The text focuses on techniques for Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG). The follow ing topics are treated in depth: interactive design techniques (specification of curves, surfaces and solids; graphical user interfaces; procedural languages and direct manipulation) and display techniques (depth-buffer, scan-line and ray-tracing techniques; CSG classification techniques; efficiency-improving methods; software and hardware implementations).

Book Description
OpenGL opens the door to the world of high-quality, high-performance 3D computer graphics. The preferred application programming interface for developing 3D applications, OpenGL is widely used in video game development, visualization and simulation, CAD, virtual reality, modeling, and computer-generated animation. OpenGL® Distilled provides the fundamental information you need to start programming 3D graphics, from setting up an OpenGL development environment to creating realistic textures and shadows. Written in an engaging, easy-to-follow style, this book makes it easy to find the information you're looking for. You'll quickly learn the essential and most-often-used features of OpenGL 2.0, along with the best coding practices and troubleshooting tips. Topics include Drawing and rendering geometric data such as points, lines, and polygons Controlling color and lighting to create elegant graphics Creating and orienting views Increasing image realism with texture mapping and shadows Improving rendering performance Preserving graphics integrity across platforms A companion Web site includes complete source code examples, color versions of special effects described in the book, and additional resources.

Book Description
The Web has come a long way since the first VRML conference, VRML '95, was held in San Diego in December 1995. The conference was known as VRML 'xx until 2001 when it was renamed the Web3D Symposium. This year the Web3D community attains a significant landmark, the 10th conference in the series. From San Diego in 1995, the conference moved to Monterey for 97 and 98, then to Europe (Paderborn in Germany) for 99, back to Monterey in 2000, Paderborn in 2001, Tempe Arizona in 2002, Saint Malo, France, in 2003, Monterey in 2004 and now, for the first time, Wales (UK) for 2005. Proceedings of all 10 conferences have been published by ACM Press and are incorporated into the ACM Digital Library. The Web3D Consortium and the Web3D community of researchers and practitioners works long and hard to foster the development and promote the use of International Standards for 3D graphics on the World Wide Web. This year has seen, among other things, the approval and publication of the X3D Specification as an ISO/IEC International Standard (ISO/ IEC 19775:2004), the emergence of the Medical Working Group, and new initiatives concerning Learning, Education and Training. This volume contains the papers accepted for the Web3D 2005 Symposium on 3D Web Technologies.

Book Description
OpenGL® is the world's leading cross-platform computer graphics software interface. Now, the world's most authoritative OpenGL® 1.2 tutorial and reference are available together for the first time, in an attractive, specially priced gift box. This is the definitive OpenGL® resource -- and an outstanding gift to every serious graphics programmer. The OpenGL® Programming Guide, Third Edition delivers definitive, comprehensive information on both OpenGL® and the OpenGL® Utility Library, covering all OpenGL® functions and showing how to use these functions to create powerful interactive applications and realistic color images. Coverage ranges from basic rendering, viewing, lighting, and texturing techniques to advanced texture mapping, antialiasing, effects, NURBS, image processing, optimization, cross-platform issues, and more. The OpenGL® Reference Manual, Third Edition is the definitive, official reference to all OpenGL® 1.2 functions, including new features such as 3D texture mapping; multitexturing; bitmapped texture level-of-detail control; new pixel storage formats; rescaling vertex normals; specular lighting after texturing; new OpenGL® Utility Library 1.3 routines; added X Window System functionality, and more.
