Computer Graphics and It's Types
What is Computer Graphics?
Computer Graphic is an art of drawing pictures on computer screens with the help of programming . It involves computation, creation and manipulation of data.
In other words, we can say that computer graphics is a rendering tool for the generation and manipulation of images.
Computer graphics is a field related to the generation of graphics using computers.
In short, it refers different things:-
- Pictures, scenes that are generated by a computer.
- Tools used to make such pictures, software and hardware, input/output devices.
- The whole field of study that involves these tools and the pictures they produce.
Types of Computer Graphics
Basically, there are two types of computer graphics namely.
- Interactive Computer Graphics
- Non -interactive Computer Graphics
1. Interactive Computer Graphics
- Interactive computer graphics refers to the field of computer graphics that focuses on creating graphical content that users can interact with in real-time.
- Interactive computer graphics is used in a wide range of applications including video games, simulations, virtual reality environments, scientific visualization, architectural design, and more.
Key components of interactive CG:-
- Rendering: The process of generating images from geometric models and textures.
- User Interaction: Enabling users to manipulate graphical elements or navigate within a virtual environment using input devices.
- Real-time Performance: Ensuring that the graphical system can update and render images at a rate that provides a smooth and responsive user experience.
- Animation: Creating dynamic motion or changes in the graphical scene over time.
2. Non-interactive Computer Graphic
- The non-interactive compute graphics is also known as passive computer graphics. It is the computer graphics in which user does not have any kind of control over the image.
- The image is totally under the control of program instruction not under the user.
Example: Screen savers.
