CSE167, Fall 2008: Introduction to Computer Graphics
This class provides an introduction to 3D computer graphics. We will cover the fundamentals of 3D rendering and modeling. The focus is on real-time applications using OpenGL. You will also learn the basics of shader programming using GPUs (graphics processing units). In the course projects you will build your own real-time rendering engine. Here is a detailed schedule of the class.
Snapshots from the final projects of previous CSE167 classes.

- 10/23/2008: Find details for midterm exam on Grading page.
- 10/22/2008: An easy way to add source files to your Makefile under Linux: check out item A4 on the Software Development page.
- 10/21/2008: Midterm Q&A session on Fri Oct 24, 4-5:30pm, Atkinson Hall room 4004
- 10/15/2008: added C++ code to read binary PGM files and a PGM version of the heightmap for Problem 2's optional assignment
- 10/10/2008: There was a bug in the Makefile for compiling on the lab computers under Linux. If you were having problems with the compiler not being able to find functions you'd added to your Vector3.h, etc, it was because of this bug. You can get the fixed Makefile from /home/linux/ieng6/cs167f/cs167f/Makefile.
- 10/08/2008: Compiling the base code under Linux in the labs should now be working as of about 7:30pm today. If you've been unable to compile under Linux in the labs do the following: - Copy your project1/src directory somewhere safe (like the desktop)
- Get the latest versions of the project1 directory and .profile from /home/linux/ieng6/cs167f/cs167f - In your home directory type "source .profile" - In your project1 directory type "make clean" then "make" - Try running the program by typing "bin/project1" - If that works then try copying in your modified source files and compiling - NOTE: you should be doing all of this from your cs167f home directory, not your OCE home directory. To get there, log in and type "prep cs167f" at the terminal, then answer yes when you are prompted to transfer to your cs167f directory
- 10/06/2008: Added forums to the Webboard on how to install base code and homework projects.
- 10/05/2008: Base code for Linux has been added to "Software Development Environment" page
- 10/01/2008: Robert's Lab Hours have been updated with exciting new times on Wednesdays and Thursdays!
- 09/25/2008: Welcome to CSE167! Check here often for course announcements.
