Principles of Digital Image Synthesis 2

Mehr zum Buch

Image synthesis, or rendering, is a field of it changesgeometry and physics into meaningful images. Because the most popularalgorithms frequently change, it is increasingly important for researchersand implementors to have a basic understanding of the principles of imagesynthesis. Focusing on theory, Andrew Glassner provides a comprehensiveexplanation of the three core fields of study that come together to formdigital image the human visual system, digital signalprocessing, and the interaction of matter and light. Assuming no more thana basic background in calculus, Glassner transforms his passion andexpertise into a thorough presentation of each of these disciplines, andtheir elegant orchestration into modern rendering techniques such asradiosity and ray tracing.
