ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½

Students generate photorealistic images using a graphics programming tool

During the 3rd year Computer Graphics course ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ are asked to programme their own ray tracer in our dedicated browser-based computer graphics . Ray tracing is an advanced computer graphics algorithm that allows to generate photorealistic images.

For the final part of the coursework project ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ can choose and implement their own special effects. Since this often leads to astonishing results we present awards in two categories to the best submissions each year. In the category 'technical complexity' challenging effects like refraction, volumetric shadows and depth of field simulation are acknowledged. The category 'scene composition' shows creative ways to create beautiful images that also tell a story.
