    Course overview

    Fig. 1, Photo-realistic image generated by ray tracing method. (Image excerpted from PovRay homepage)

    Photo-realistic rendering has been one of major topics in the fields of computer graphics and visualization. Various global illumination methods have been developed to achieve such photo-realistic rendering given a model. Such methods have been widely used in various applications including movies, product designs, and virtual prototyping. However, we are still unable to provide interactive performance for global illuminations producing photo-realistic rendering results.

    In this class, we will study basic global illumination methods as well as basic concepts (e.g., texture, lighting, shading) of computer graphics. In addition, we will discuss recent rendering techniques for complex scenes and interactive techniques for various applications.
