Text Books and Resources
All exam relevant material will be taught in class, and the instructor's lecture slides will be available on-line. For more detailed descriptions of the covered topics, the instructor recommends the following text books for this course. Both are available on-line, at least in older versions, which will work just fine for the class.
| Peter Shirley, Steve Marschner: Fundamentals of Computer Graphics, Fourth Edition, 2015 (earlier editions will also work). A K Peters/CRC Press, ISBN 1482229390 Author's site, Amazon.com, On-Line at Google Books | File:Shirley-cover-2015.jpg |
| Dave Shreiner: OpenGL Programming Guide: The Official Guide to Learning OpenGL, Version 2.1. Pearson Education, ISBN 8131721841, at Amazon. An older version is on-line: Version 1.1,alternate link, sample programs
Note that the latest version of the book covers a newer version of OpenGL, whereas in class we use the original OpenGL. So don't buy this book if it covers OpenGL 3.0 or higher. |
