Course Language: English
Audience: Master (Angewandte Informatik, Angewandte Kognitions- und Medienwissenschaften, International Studies in Engineering)
Abstract: This lecture is the introductory course to Computer Graphics. The course teaches the algorithms used to program a computer to generate images of a geometric models with associated appearance properties. Starting with introductory lectures on the basics of surfaces and light propagation the course will focus on the two well known rendering methods, CPU and GPU-based ray-tracing and GPU-accelerated raster graphics. Topics include:
- Basics
- Geometric Models: Meshes, Implicit Surfaces, Splines
- Color & Perception
- Light Transport
- 3D Image Generation Methods
- OpenGL, DirectX, CUDA
- Ray Tracing I: basics
- Ray Tracing II: acceleration techniques
- Fast Intersection Tests
- Space Partitioning & Bounding Volume Hierarchies
- GPU-acceleration
- Rasterization & GPU-based rendering
- Linear and Affine Transformations
- Rasterization and Shading
- Clipping
- Visibility & Shadows
- Curves & surfaces
- Sampling Theory
Seminar: How to Deliver an Engaging Speech - Eine Einführung in elementare Vorbereitungs- und Vortragstechniken
Kick-off & Meeting Registration: October 12
Time & Place: Thu. 12:00-14:00 s.t. LF 125
Instructors: Prof. Dr. J. Krüger & team
Course Langugage: English or German
Audience: Bachelor & Master
Abstract:
In addition to the scientific content in this seminar we will put
special emphasis on the presentation. To improve the presentation skills
of the participants we will start the seminar with simpe topics,
record short talks from each participant, and analyze the presentation.
Students then give a seminar talk on their chosen topic.
Lab Course: Dear Data
Kick-off & Meeting Registration: October 13, 11:00 s.t., LE 334
Time & Place: Fri. 11:00 s.t. LE 334
Instructors: Prof. Dr. J. Krüger & team
Course Langugage: German
Audience: Bachelor
Abstract:
In this lab course the participants will learn to
gather data and design scientific visualisations
using this data. We will use an approach similar
to the award winning
Dear Data project
by Giorgia Lupi and Stefanie Posavec. Given a specific topic
each week, participants will have to track their
data and custom design a visual representation of
their data and present this representation in
front of the group at the end of the week. If you
are interesting in this lab course, please come to
the registration and kick-off-meeting.
