- Understanding the mathematical foundations of geometric transformations in computer graphics.
- Handling textures to display image-based content.
- Applying Illumination in 2D/3D scenes.
- OpenGL API programming.
- GLSL Shaders programming.
Skills:
- Creating and manipulating 2D and 3D geometries with texturing and lighting
- Using OpenGL for rendering 2D and 3D environments.
General Competences:
- Finding solutions to a defined problem orally, and answer question about the solution.
- Using academic material from various online sources in an independent way.
- Improved software development ability.
- Reinforce version control, programming and code analysis.
Learning methods and activities
- Lectures with theoretical content.
- Labs and Assignments where the students will work in a problem-based learning setting using C++, OpenGL, CMake and Git, as well as some other relevant C++ libraries.
Compulsory assignments
- Mandatory programming assignments
Further on evaluation
Re-sit examination is possible in agreement with the course responsible. If the number of students is low enough, the re-sit examination form might change to a deliverable and/or oral exam.
Assessment:
Home exam (100%)
Mandatory programming assignments that needs to be approved to be able to take the home exam.

Course materials
Computing Resources:
- This course requires a computer with a GPU and an operating system capable of running OpenGL 4.1 or superior. It is the responsibility of the student to set up the operating system and drivers to work properly for the course.
- The material of the course has been prepared and tested in GNU/Linux systems. MS Windows users should be able to run this material as well. Mac OS does not support OpenGL > 4.1 and we discourage its use for this course. Students who decide to take the course with Mac OS can do it using OpenGL 4.1, however, the student will take full responsibility of adapting the material of the course to Mac OS, as well as making sure the deliverables work properly in Windows/Linux with OpenGL 4.1 or superior ("but it works on my machine" won't be accepted).
