  2. Computer Graphics Computer graphics is the discipline concerned with all aspects of producing pictures or images using a computer. Interactive computer graphics implies user is in the loop of feedback process: Graphics System User Display React to Change Change Image Input Device

  3. History of Computer Graphics • Whirlwind computer at MIT: SAGE (1950s) • Sketchpad (Ivan Sutherland, MIT 1963) • Computer Aided Design (CAD) 1965 - • Simulators (c.1975-) • Bitmap graphical user interfaces (late 70s) • Virtual reality (late 80s - ) • Computer animation • Visualization • Computer art • Web/Internet based graphics For a more detailed historical timeline
