| | What is Computer Graphics? |
 | | The term computer graphics includes almost everything on computers that is not text or sound. |  | | Here in our lab at the Program of Computer Graphics, we think of computer graphics as drawing pictures on computers, also called rendering. |  | | Today almost every computer can do some graphics, and people have even come to expect to control their computer through icons and pictures rather than just by typing. |
