Opis

Computer Graphics professionals can now find in one volume a collection of 32 "gems" chosen by the editors of the journal of graphics tools, one of the leading publications in the field. These selected papers provide practical ideas and techniques that solve real problems in the areas of - Math & Programming Techniques - Polygon Techniques - Simulation and Collision Detection - Ray Tracing - Rendering and Shadowing - Sampling and Shading - Image Processing Supplementary material in the form of updates on techniques presented, extensions to the original idea, and comments on the impact of the original publication have been provided by many of the authors.

Recenzje

Guess we are not going to get by with a plucky attitude and an attractive set of colored pencils anymore. In this collection of articles from the journal of graphics tools we can find out why... -SciTech Book News, December 2005
