Informationen zum Autor Thomas Strothotte is professor of computer science at the University of Magdeburg (Germany), where he founded undergraduate and graduate degree programs in computational visualistics. He studied at Simon Fraser University, the University of Waterloo, and McGill University. He has held teaching and research appointments at INRIA Rocquencourt, the University of Stuttgart, Free University of Berlin, and the former IBM Scientific Center in Heidelberg. Stefan Schlechtweg is assistant professor at the University of Magdeburg (Germany), where his teaching and research areas are computer graphics and interactive systems. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Magdeburg in 1999. Klappentext Penning one of the first books to offer a systematic assessment of computer graphics, the authors provide detailed accounts of today's major non-photorealistic algorithms, along with the background information and implementation advice users need to put them to productive use. Zusammenfassung Practitioners and researchers are devoting attention to non-photorealistic techniques for generating images that appear to have been created by hand. This book examines non-photorealistic efforts! providing accounts of the major algorithms! and the background information and implementation advice readers need to make headway with these techniques.
