Computer Graphics(CG) is the art or science of input, representation,  transformation, operation and output of graphics with the aid of computer and its peripheral equipment. This course is a fundamental professional course, emphasizing on both theory and practice. It introduces the basics of CG and the design method of interactive graphical system. The objective is to let the student have the basic concepts and principles of CG, the implementation method of interactive graphical system, and the application techniques in engineering.

This course puts much emphasis on the fundamental theory of Computer Graphics as well as the application of CG theory into engineering practice. The course outcomes are as follows.

1.        Demonstrate the basic algorithms in Computer Graphics, developing programming skills.

2.        Demonstrate the generating method for curves and surfaces, developing the free-form modeling ability.

3.        Demonstrate the geometric modeling method, developing the 3D modeling ability.

4.        Demonstrate the basic techniques of graphics and images.

5.        Develop the ability of literature reviewing, active learning and studying.

6.             Develop the quality of combining the theory and the practice.
