Abstract:
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of 3D computer graphics such as that provided by SIGGRAPH 2005’s introductory course. Working knowledge of a modern graphics API like OpenGL, VRML, X3D, or Java3D. Ability to read simple computer programs written in C and Java.
Intended Audience
Anyone who is interested in 3D graphics on mobile devices, although the course is intended more for programmers than graphic designers.
Description
This course presents two new 3D graphics APIs for mobile platforms: OpenGL ES and M3G. Topics include the structure of the APIs, the evolution of mobile graphics standards, programming examples, and tips and tricks for programmers and artists. Attendees gain an understanding of the functionality the standards provide and how to use them to create efficient graphics applications.
