| | Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Rendering is the process of generating an image from a model, by means of a software program. | | | With the increasing sophistication of computer graphics since the 1970s onward, it has become a more distinct subject. | | | Rendering for movies often takes place on a network of tightly connected computers known as a render farm. |

| | 3D computer graphics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | 3D computer graphics are different from 2D computer graphics in that a three-dimensional representation of geometric data is stored in the computer for the purposes of performing calculations and rendering 2D images. | | | However, 3D computer graphics relies on many of the same algorithms as 2D computer graphics. | | | 3D computer graphics are works of graphic art that were created with the aid of digital computers and specialized 3D software. |

| | Computer Graphics |
| | Computer animation is the use of computers to create animations. | | | Computer graphics are any types of images created using any kind of computer. | | | Images created by computers can be very simple, such as lines and circles, or extremly complex such as fractals and complicated rendered animations. |

| | Synchronous Graphics Random Access memory (SGRAM) is a type of memory that is optimized for graphics use. | | | It is implemented by rendering polygons through a stipple mask whose on-off density is proportional to the transparency of the object. | | | Triangles or quadrilaterals are two usually used polygons in drawing graphical objects because computer hardware can easy manipulate and calculate these two simple polygons. |

| | Stylized Depiction: Non-Photorealistic, Painterly and 'Toon Rendering |
| | Non-Photorealistic Computer Graphics: Modeling, Rendering, and Animation (2002) by Thomas Strothotte and Stefan Schlechtweg. | | | In computer graphics, photorealistic rendering attempts to make artificial images of simulated 3d environments that look "just like the real world." So non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) is any technique that produces images of simulated 3d world in a style other than realism. | | | Christopher G. Healey this course presentation surveys a number of issues in nonphotorealistic rendering and visual perception, then discusses their relevance to computer graphics and scientific visualization through a series of descriptions, examples, and practical applications. |

| | Inverse Rendering for Computer Graphics |
| | This effort has led to mathematical models and algorithms that can compute predictive, or physically realistic, images from known camera positions and scene descriptions that include the geometry of objects, the reflectance of surfaces, and the lighting used to illuminate the scene. | | | Creating realistic images has been a major focus in the study of computer graphics for much of its history. | | | The second two inverse rendering problems solve for unknown reflectance, given images with known geometry, lighting, and camera positions. |
