This unique book and CD-Rom package provides a comprehensive course in computer graphics, image processing and computer vision, using multimedia techniques to illuminate the concepts and techniques. Takes an interactive hands-on approach in which students master the concepts by manipulating or experimenting with a model and simultaneously viewing the changes to the image on the screen. *Unique breadth of coverage of subjects that have previously only appeared in separate texts. *Novel treatment of the moving image, virtual reality, medical imaging and computer art. *Packaged with the book is a CD-ROM that provides implementations of many of the techniques described in the book. *The software includes a Z-buffer renderer, a distributed ray tracer, a radiosity renderer, an image processing module containing all the normal filtering facilities and transforms, morphing and warping software, particle/elastic object simulation with collision detection, a progressive image coprocessor using wavelets (including a Java, ActiveX, OLE, 3DSMAX plugin), stereo and autostereogram generator, modelling software (including a Bezier modeller and a mesh optimizer), computer vision software including depth from stereo, flow field estimation, object tracking and classification of satellite imagery. *Also on the CD-ROM are scene files, animation demonstrations and a complete set of all the images used in the book. *The software can be used for teaching, experimentation and the development of an application package. *The source code is written in C++.
