Mathematics Behind Realistic Computer Graphics

Overview

Objectives/Goals My project's title is "Mathematics Behind Realistic Computer Graphics". I was interested in how realistic non-realtime computer graphics are made, so I made a 3D computer graphics program to learn computer algorithms to make realistic CGs. Methods/Materials I made a computer program to demonstrate algorithms I studied. I used three computers to develop and debug my program, but only one computer is needed for compiling this program. I used asemmbly (x86 and MIPS) and C++ for faster execution of the program. Results I made realistic computer graphics images from my program. It clearly showed correct shade, shadow, reflection, and refraction. Conclusions/Discussion I learned lot of computer algorithms from making this program. I never knew vector mathematics was used in computer graphics. The program is significant because it is one of the few computer graphics programs that can run on a regular computer. It can even run on PocketPC PDA. Sourceforge.jp agreed to support this opensource project. They provided me CVS, HTTP, and FTP webserver.
