Abstract

The real time Computer Graphic system is a powerful tool to enhance visualization of three-dimensional information. This paper introduces the basic concepts of how digital models are created and how a digital image generator processes the model data base to produce an interactive, real time display of the model. Examples of applications are described and photographs of actual computer generated imagery are included to show the realism obtainable from state-of-the-art systems.
