  2. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    v. t. e. An engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing that is used to convey information about an object. A common use is to specify the geometry necessary for the construction of a component and is called a detail drawing. Usually, a number of drawings are necessary to completely specify even a simple component.

  3. Vector graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics

    Vector graphics are a form of computer graphics in which visual images are created directly from geometric shapes defined on a Cartesian plane, such as points, lines, curves and polygons. The associated mechanisms may include vector display and printing hardware, vector data models and file formats, as well as the software based on these data ...

  4. Computer graphics (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics...

    Computer graphics studies manipulation of visual and geometric information using computational techniques. It focuses on the mathematical and computational foundations of image generation and processing rather than purely aesthetic issues. Computer graphics is often differentiated from the field of visualization, although the two fields have ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing...

    Appearance. Engineering drawing abbreviations and symbols are used to communicate and detail the characteristics of an engineering drawing. This list includes abbreviations common to the vocabulary of people who work with engineering drawings in the manufacture and inspection of parts and assemblies. Technical standards exist to provide ...

  6. Wire-frame model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire-frame_model

    A wire-frame model, also wireframe model, is a visual representation of a three-dimensional (3D) physical object used in 3D computer graphics. It is created by specifying each edge of the physical object where two mathematically continuous smooth surfaces meet, or by connecting an object's constituent vertices using (straight) lines or curves .

  7. Visualization (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visualization_(graphics)

    Visualization (graphics) Visualization of how a car deforms in an asymmetrical crash using finite element analysis. Visualization (or visualisation (see spelling differences)), also known as Graphics Visualization, is any technique for creating images, diagrams, or animations to communicate a message.

  8. Computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics

    Computer graphics deals with generating images and art with the aid of computers. Computer graphics is a core technology in digital photography, film, video games, digital art, cell phone and computer displays, and many specialized applications. A great deal of specialized hardware and software has been developed, with the displays of most ...

  9. Graphics pipeline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_pipeline

    The computer graphics pipeline, also known as the rendering pipeline, or graphics pipeline, is a framework within computer graphics that outlines the necessary procedures for transforming a three-dimensional (3D) scene into a two-dimensional (2D) representation on a screen. [1] Once a 3D model is generated, the graphics pipeline converts the ...
