From the Back Cover

OpenGL Graphics Through Applications is a practical introduction to Computer Graphics with an emphasis on understanding through practice. Throughout the book, theory is followed by implementation using C / C++ to support student centred learning and complete programs are provided on the Springer website.

A procedural approach has been taken to algorithmic development while taking an object oriented approach when building artefacts from simple objects. The book covers a range of topics including:

•image processing

•artefact construction

•introductory animation

•texturing

•curves, surfaces and patterns

Robert Whitrow has taught computing courses from first year undergraduate to postgraduate MSc at a number of different universities.
