Softwarepraktikum "Computer Graphics" WS07/08

Overview

Computer graphics is the field of visual computing. Therefore computers are used to generate images synthetically and to collect data from the real world. With the development of new fast hardware, the simulation of different physical effects like waterflow or refraction can be done in a visual very realistic way.

This course focuses on the simulation of interesting physical phenomenons and combines them with computer graphics techniques for 2D and 3D visualization. Working in teams of 2 students, you will study and implement one of the following interesting topics, described below.

Details for each topic is shown on the project page.
