Computer Graphics: The creation, manipulation, and representation of visual images using

computers; essential for visual communication and design.


Example: Pixar uses computer graphics to create animated films like "Toy Story."

Definition: Computer graphics refers to the technology and methods for creating visual content
digitally; it enhances user interfaces and experiences.
Example: The graphical user interface (GUI) in Windows operating systems.

Classification & Applications: Divides into categories like 2D, 3D, and animation; used in fields
such as entertainment, education, and simulation.
Example: 3D modeling software like Autodesk Maya used in movie production and video game
development.

Development of Hardware & Software for Computer Graphics: Involves creating specialized
devices and programs to render images efficiently; critical for performance and capability
improvements.
Example: NVIDIA's development of graphics processing units (GPUs) for advanced rendering.

Refresh Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT): A type of display device that refreshes images by directing
electron beams on a phosphorescent screen; foundational technology in early displays.
Example: Old television sets and early computer monitors.

Random and Raster Scan Devices: Methods of drawing images where random scan draws lines
directly, and raster scan uses a grid of pixels; key for image rendering techniques.
Example: Oscilloscopes use random scan, while modern monitors use raster scan.

Direct-View Storage Tubes (DVST): Display technology that retains images without refreshing;
used in early graphic systems for stable displays.
Example: Early CAD (Computer-Aided Design) systems utilized DVST for engineering drawings.

Plasma Panel Display: Uses ionized gas to produce images on screen; significant for its wide
viewing angles and color accuracy.
Example: Panasonic's plasma TVs.

LED Monitors: Utilize light-emitting diodes for backlighting; known for energy efficiency and thin
design.
Example: Samsung's LED computer monitors.

LCD Monitors: Use liquid crystals to modulate light and create images; important for their
widespread use in screens due to clarity and low power consumption.
Example: Dell UltraSharp monitors.

Laser Devices: Emit focused light for high precision; crucial in printers, scanners, and medical
applications.
Example: Laser printers like those from HP.

Printers: Devices that produce hard copies of digital documents and images; vital for tangible
records and artworks.
Example: Epson inkjet printers.

Plotters: Precision drawing tools for large-scale images and designs; important for engineering
and architectural blueprints.
Example: HP DesignJet plotters used for large format printing.

Display Processors: Specialized hardware to manage image rendering and output; essential for
efficient graphics performance.
Example: AMD's Radeon graphics cards with advanced display processing capabilities.

Raster and Random Scan System: Raster scan processes images as pixel grids, while random
scan directly draws vector graphics; foundational concepts in image rendering.
Example: Video games use raster scan for rendering scenes, while vector graphics software like
Adobe Illustrator can use random scan for drawing paths.
