Lecture: Computer Graphics I (WS08/09)
This is an introductory course to the basic techniques of computer graphics. It is part of the Vertiefungsfach "Computergraphik und Multimedia" and is primarly intended for students who have already received their Vordiplom.
Please note: With the introduction of the Master Course in Computer Science in Wintersemester 2008/09 the layout of the Computer Graphics 1+2 and Geometric Modeling 1+2 courses will slightly change (V3Ü2 instead of V4Ü2 or V2Ü2), but the contents will essentially be the same. Thus, diploma students can still easily chose the Vertiefungsfach Computergraphik und Multimedia.
