Wolfgang Hürst Computer Graphics (and some other stuff …)

August 6, 2014 Who is this? (and why does he talk English?) Universitair Docent in Multimedia & Geometry group Originally from Germany, since 2008 in Utrecht Still struggling with the language though (ik snap het wel, maar praten gaat nog niet) Teaching in the bachelor: Graphics (4th period) Introductie project (2nd period, coordination & tutor) Research interests: Mostly mobile multimedia and mobile interaction

August 6, 2014 Graphics (1st year, 4th period) Computer graphics are graphics created using a computer and, more generally, the representation of image data by a computer Sub-areas 2D computer graphics 3D computer graphics Computer animation We will deal with 3D graphics
4
Graphics (1st year, 4th period) How do we get 3D data on a 2D screen? 1.Describe it (aka 3D modeling) 2.Do a perspective projection 3.Add colors, texture, light, etc. (aka shading)
5
August 6, 2014 Graphics (1st year, 4th period) Lecture (college, 2 times 2 hours per week) Focus on the basics (including lots of mathematics) Exercises (werkcollege, 2 hours per week) Deepen understanding of theory and preparation for written exams (in smaller groups) Programming assignments (practicum, 2+X hours per week) Apply theory in practice (shader programming)
6
August 6, 2014 Graphics (1st year, 4th period) Some results from last year’s course: Note: this year we will program shaders instead of ray tracing

8
August 6, 2014 3D on mobiles Some examples of what I’m doing … (well, technically it’s what students that I’m supervising are doing) 3D interfaces Hand tracking and augmented reality interaction

August 6, 2014 Introductie project (1st year, 2nd period) Lecture (6 lectures, Frans Wiering) Some basics about software & game development Meetings (weekly, with begeleiders) Progress, planning, organizing Programming (on your own, in groups of 5) Develop a game in a small team Symposium (at the end, all) Present and demonstrate your game
11
August 6, 2014 Introductie project (1st year, 2nd period) So, what exactly will we develop? Well, a game … e.g. an implementation of a classic (2D) game with some state-of-the-art extension (e.g. sound, graphics, interface)
12
August 6, 2014 Introductie project (1st year, 2nd period) Major purpose of this project: Experience what’s special in a game development process (and software development in general) Not that much game design (will be taught in Game Ontwerp, 3rd period ) Not that much advanced, fancy 3D graphics (will be taught in Graphics, 4th period) That’s why you should implement a classic 2D game But: you are welcome to bring your own ideas! Why do I not find any info on this online? Because it’s a new course and we are still setting it up (info will be online by end of Sept / early Oct)
