Credit points: 15
Subject outline
This subject covers a broad range of topics in the three most important domains of Computer Graphics, i.e. modelling, animation, and rendering. It is designed to enable you to acquire basic theoretical knowledge on Computer Graphics and useful programming skills for relevant purposes. In this subject, you will learn how to implement selected important tasks of Computer Graphics, e.g. drawing 2D curves, building 3D models, simulating physical processes and generating realistic images with effects, in Python with OpenGL.

Assessments
| Assessment element | Category | Contribution | Hurdle | % | ILO* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assignment 1 (1250 words) The assignment depends on the programming questions in laboratory classes about curves and surfaces, hierarchical modelling, skeletal subspace deformation, and physical simulation. It requires students to design a solution to the questions, implement and evaluate it in Python within 4 weeks. Students are supposed to submit a Python application together with its sources and a short report. | N/A | N/A | No | 25 | SILO2, SILO3, SILO4 |
| Assignment 2 (1250 words) The assignment depends on the programming questions in laboratory classes about ray casting and ray tracing. It requires students to design a solution to the questions, implement and evaluate it in Python within 4 weeks. Students are supposed to submit a Python application together with its sources and a short report. | N/A | N/A | No | 25 | SILO2, SILO3, SILO4 |
| Final Examination (2-hour, written, equivalent to 2,000 words) To pass the subject, students also need to pass the final examination, i.e. achieve at least 60 out of the total 120 points. The final examination consists of multiple-choice questions (50 points), short-answer questions (20 points), tracing questions (20 points) and drawing and analysis questions (30 points). | N/A | N/A | No | 50 | SILO1, SILO2, SILO4 |
