- Course objectives
- This course aims to provide students with a comprehensive overview of computer graphics interfaces, focusing on practical application development using OpenGL (Open Graphics Library). Through a combination of theoretical lectures and hands-on programming assignments, students will gain the necessary skills to design and implement various computer graphics applications.
- Learning outcomes
- After completing this course, students will be able to:
- understand existing code written in OpenGL;
- utilize OpenGL for developing simple 3D graphics applications;
- better understand the fundamentals of computer graphics principles. - Syllabus
- Basic rendering principles leveraging OpenGL and GLSL
- Overview of the rendering pipeline
