Book Overview

This book exploits the combined advantages of an object-orientated approach to programming, the user friendly environment of Borland C++, and the high quality computer graphics achievable with VGA and XGA graphic adapters running on IBM PS/2 (and compatible) machines. Topics such as modelling and transformation of objects, hidden surface removal, smooth shading, shadows, transparency and reflections are covered. An explanation of all these concepts, the underlying mathematics and data structures is provided by the authors. This book will enable readers, whether an interested user equipped with a suitable microcomputer, or a student taking an advanced practical course in computer graphics, to acquire considerable expertise in this area of visual communication. This book should be of interest to undergraduates and computer enthusiasts interested in programming. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Excellent book for 3D graphics programmers!

This is the most fascinating book I have read on 3D computer graphics. It's undoubtedly 5 star. Whoever said "it's really bad for intermediate C programmers" should realize that this book is meant to teach you fundamentals of graphics programming and not fundamentals of C++ programming. The title of the book says it all. The reader is assumed to be an intermediate-to-advanced C++ programmer. I have read this book in great...

Excellent advanced graphics settings

Advanced Graphics on VGA and XGA Cards using C++ is the best 3D graphics reference I ever read! It shows how to program 3D objects using the (x,y,z) coordinates and the explanations are shorts, simple but require a strong knowlege of mathematics. If you understand everything in this book, you'll surely be able to program powerful software like Softimage, but the book don't start at beginning and I suggest you to learn...
