Download or read book Real Time Shader Programming written by Ron Fosner and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-01-10 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that PC users have entered the realm of programmable hardware, graphics programmers can create 3D images and animations comparable to those produced by RenderMan's procedural programs—-but in real time. Here is a book that will bring this cutting-edge technology to your computer. Beginning with the mathematical basics of vertex and pixel shaders, and building to detailed accounts of programmable shader operations, Real-Time Shader Programming provides the foundation and techniques necessary for replicating popular cinema-style 3D graphics as well as creating your own real-time procedural shaders. A compelling writing style, color illustrations throughout, and scores of online resources make Real-Time Shader Programming an indispensable tutorial/reference for the game developer, graphics programmer, game artist, or visualization programmer, to create countless real-time 3D effects. * Contains a complete reference of the low-level shader language for both DirectX 8 and DirectX 9 * Provides an interactive shader demonstration tool (RenderMonkeyTM) for testing and experimenting * Maintains an updated version of the detailed shader reference section at www.directx.com * Teaches the latest shader programming techniques for high-performance real-time 3D graphics

Download or read book Introduction to Computer Graphics written by Hans-Joachim Bungartz and published by Delmar Thomson Learning. This book was released on 2004 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this essential guide to programming computer graphics, the authors begin with the basics of generating images from scratch on a computer screen, taking the first chapter to discuss coordinate systems and transformations, rudimentary shapes, and the representation of grays and colors. The book then moves into ways to model and then represent a three-dimensional figure, covering mathematical models, the vef graph, Euler operators, Bézier curves, and then three-dimensional clipping, lighting effects/shading, visualization, and ray tracing. The final chapter addresses specific applications of techniques such as mapping, stereography, and image processing, explaining their use in representing natural objects as well as in virtual reality programming. This book can be used as a reference for professionals in the computer graphics field and a textbook for students of computer graphics programming.
