PHYS 12700 - Physics for Computer Graphics and Animation


A study of the physics of light and its interactions with objects as these topics apply to the production of computer-generated images. The course will investigate light and color through observation and the use of 3-D graphics programs. In particular how light interacts with surfaces and how we see will be explored in order to understand how to make graphic images that appear true to life.
