UC San Diego computer scientists have created a fog and smoke machine for computer graphics that cuts the computational cost of making realistic smoky and foggy 3-D images, such as beams of light from ...

Video game graphics have evolved quickly in the last few decades, taking advantage of faster processors, cheaper memory, and enormous advances in video card technology. Early games turned lemons into ...

Today we begin our discussion of computer graphics. Today we begin our discussion of computer graphics. So we ended last episode with the proliferation of command line (or text) interfaces, which ...

Here at the Strategist, we like to think of ourselves as crazy (in the good way) about the stuff we buy, but as much as we’d like to, we can’t try everything. Which is why we have People’s Choice, in ...

Today we’re going to discuss how 3D graphics are created and rendered for a 2D screen. From polygon count and meshes, to lighting and texturing, there are a lot of considerations in building the 3D ...

The creation of computer graphics has evolved dramatically as computers have become commonplace in homes around the world. Computers today are more powerful, smaller and quieter than those in the past ...

Not all computers are designed the same way. Though two computers in your office may have on-board graphics chipsets, it may be that only one of them would take a video card. The devil is in the ...

Computer graphics and geometry processing research provide the tools needed to simulate physical phenomena like fire and flames, aiding the creation of visual effects in video games and movies as well ...

ACM, the Association for Computing Machinery, today named Patrick M. (Pat) Hanrahan and Edwin E. (Ed) Catmull recipients of the 2019 ACM A.M. Turing Award for fundamental contributions to 3-D computer ...
