Handbook

Current application & theory. Describe current applications of computer graphics and image processing and explain the basic theory behind digital imaging;

Components and devices. Describe the components and devices of a modern computer graphics and image processing system and their functions;

Techniques and algorithms. Explain the techniques and algorithms used for developing interactive graphics-based applications involving both 2D and 3D graphical objects which appear to be static or in motion

Theory of transformations. Explain the essential theory behind common image-to-image transformations used mainly for image enhancement;

Design and implement. Design and implement computer graphics and image processing programs in C including the use of library functions from the OpenGL Application Programmer’s Interface (API);

Coding and debugging. Demonstrate sound skills in coding and debugging using the C programming language;

Extend knowledge. Demonstrate knowledge of computer graphics principles and programming beyond what is taught in class;

Collaborative work. Where possible, acquired a basic appreciation of what is involved in teamwork. This is especially important to Game Technology students who will be doing more collaborative work in later units. More importantly, collaborative work is a fundamental requirement when it comes to getting a job at the end of your degree.
