Study Notes
- Ivan Sutherland's Sketchpad introduced pop-up menus, constraint-based drawing, and hierarchical modeling in 1963.
- Display hardware has evolved from vector displays to micro-mirror projectors and other technologies.
- Input hardware includes 2D and 3D trackers, multiple cameras, and data gloves.
- Rendering techniques have evolved from hidden-line/surface algorithms to global illumination, photorealism, and non-photorealistic rendering.
- The graphics pipeline includes modeling, animation, and rendering.
- Modeling techniques include polygons, constructive solid geometry, and parametric/implicit/subdivision surfaces.
- Animation techniques include scripted, key-frame interpolation, inverse kinematics, and dynamics.
- The new graphics pipeline includes 3D scanning, motion capture, and image-based rendering.
- Non-photorealistic rendering techniques include volume rendering, impressionistic paint programs, automatic pen-and-ink illustration, and painterly rendering.
- Image-based rendering techniques include view interpolation, plenoptic modeling, and light field rendering.
