Computer Graphics Suggestion Answers [University Examination]
Chapter 1: Introduction, CRT, Color Display

Question:- Define the following terms:- i) resolution ii) aspect ratio iii) refresh rate iv) Bit map and
pix map v) frame buffer vi) interlacing, vii) bit-plane viii) triad.
Solution:-
 Resolution:- The maximum no. of points that can be displayed without overlap on a CRT.
Number of distinct pixels in each dimension that can be displayed.
In digital measurement, display resolution would be given in pixels per inch or cm.
Example:- 640x480, 1920x1080, 4096x2160, 1280x720 etc.
 Aspect Ratio:- This number gives the ratio of horizontal points to vertical points necessary to
produce equal length lines in both directions on the screen.
Width:height necessary to produce equal length lines.
E.g. 4:3, 16:9, 16:10 etc.
 Refresh Rate of CRT:- It is defined by the number of times CRT screen is scanned by electron
beam per unit time.
E.g., 60Hz or 60fps refresh rate means whole screen is scanned 60 times per second.
 Pixmap:- Colorful mapping to bitplane’s bits is termed as pixmap where each one pixel may store
more than two colors, thus using more than one bit per pixel.
Bitmap:- Sometimes bitmap is used instead of pixmap which uses exactly one bit per pixel.
 Frame Buffer:- Picture definition is stored in a memory area called as refresh or frame buffer.
Frame buffer holds intensity values for all the screen points.
Stored intensity values are retrieved from frame buffer and displayed on the screen one row
(scanline) at a time.
 Interlacing:- On some raster scan system, each frame is displayed in two passes using an
interlaced refresh procedure.
In interlacing, instead of refreshing every line, the electron guns sweep alternate lines on each
pass. In the first pass, odd numbered lines are refreshed, in the seconds pass even numbered lines
are refreshed.
 Bit-plane:- In graphics, frame buffer is a contiguous memory location available for image
information
storage. At a minimum, there is 1 bit storage for each pixels in the screen. This is called as bit-
plane. In color image, there exists atleast 1 bit-plane surface for each basic colors. These surfaces
makes up the frame buffer storage.
 Triad:- a triad is a group of three phosphor dots coloured red, green, and blue on the inside of the
CRT display of a computer monitor or television set. 3 different electron guns exists to hit these
different colored phosphor of a pixel area to illuminate the light.
Question:- Short note on Cathode Ray Tube./or, describe the functionality of a CRT system with
the help of a diagram.
Solution:-
 Primary components of an electron gun in a CRT are the heated metal cathode & a control grid.
 Heat is supplied to the cathode by directing a current through a coil of wire (filament).
 This causes electron to be “boiled off” the hot cathode surface.

 The free, negatively charged electrons are then accelerated toward the phosphor coating by a high
+ve voltage.
 A beam of electrons (cathode ray) emitted by an electron gun, passes through focusing &
deflection systems that direct the beam toward specified position on the phosphor coated screen.
 Intensity of the electron beam is controlled by setting voltage levels on the control grid.
 Focusing system forces the electron beam to converge into a small spot as it strikes the phosphor.
 Horizontal & vertical movement of the electron beam is controlled by horizontal & vertical
deflection plate respectively.
 Accelerating anode controls the velocity of the electron beam.
 After passing through focusing system & deflection system, when the electron in the beam collide
with phosphor coating, they are stopped & their kinetic energy is absorbed by the phosphor.
 Part of the beam energy is converted by friction into heat energy, & the remainder causes
electrons in the phosphor atoms to move up to higher quantum energy levels.
 After a short time, the “excited” phosphor electrons begins dropping back to their stable ground
state, giving up their extra energy as small quantum's of light energy.
 Because the light emitted by the phosphor fades very rapidly, to keep the phosphor glowing, the
picture is redrawn repeatedly by quickly directing the electron beam back over the same point.
This type of display is known as refresh CRT.
Question:- Consider the two different raster system with resolutions of 800x600 and 2560x2048.
What size of frame buffers is needed for each of these systems to store 24 bits per pixel? How much
storage is required for each system if 16 bits per pixel are to be stored?
Solution:-
 In first system, total no. of pixel=800x600
1 pixel can store=24 bits
So, size of frame buffer=(800x600x24)/8 =14,40,000 bytes
Total no. of pixel=2560x2048
So, size of frame buffer=(2560x2048x24)/8 =1,57,28,640 bytes

 In second system, total no. of pixel=800x600
Question:- Consider the three different master systems with resolution of 640x480, 1280x1024 and
2560x2048. What is the size of the frame buffers is needed for each of these systems to store 12-bits
per pixel? How much storage is required for each systems if 24-bits per pixel are to be stored?
Solution:-
 In first system, total no. of pixel=640x480
 In second system, total no. of pixel=640x480

Question:- Define persistence and animation.
Solution:-
 Persistence:- Time it takes the emitted light from the screen to decay to 1/10 th of its original
intensity.
 Computer animation is a general term for a kind of visual digital display technology that
simulates moving objects on-screen.
5. Distinguish between raster scan display and random scan display.
Solution:-
Random or Vector Scan Display Raster Scan Display

Question:- Write a short note on raster scanning display system.
Solution:-
 Electron beam is swept across the screen one row at a time from top to bottom and from left to
right.
 Entire screen is a matrix of phosphor dot(pixel).
 As the electron beam moves across each row, beam intensity is turned on and off to create
patterns of illuminated spots.
 Picture definition is stored in a memory area called as refresh or frame buffer.
 Frame buffer holds intensity values for all the screen points.
 Stored intensity values are retrieved from frame buffer and displayed on the screen one row
(scanline) at a time.
 Raster scan starts from the top left corner of the screen, scanning horizontally from left to right
one row at a time.
 When it reaches the end of a scanline, it jumps to left end of next scanline (horizontal retrace)
and starts scanning it.
 When electron gun reaches bottom right of the screen, it jumps to the top left corner of the screen
without tracing (vertical retrace) and starts again.
 In the raster scan, screen image is maintained by repeatedly scanning the same image known as
refreshing of screen.
Question:- Write a short note on shadow masking.
Solution:-
 It is used in raster scan system (including color TV)
 It has 3 phosphor color dots at each pixel position, known as triad.
 One phosphor dot emits a red light, another emits a green light and the third emits a blue light.
 It has 3 electron guns, one for each color dot.
 Also it has shadow mask grid just behind the phosphor coated screen.
 The three electron beams are deflected and focused as a group onto the shadow mask, which
contains a series of holes aligned with the phosphor dot patterns.
 When the three beams pass through a hole in the mask, they activate a dot triangle, which appears
as a small color spot on the screen.
 We obtain color variations by varying the intensity levels on the three electron beams as follows-
Question:- Differentiate between passive and interactive computer graphics. Give example.
Solution:-
(a) Non-Interactive or Passive Computer Graphics:
In non-interactive computer graphics, the picture is produced on the monitor, and the user does not have
any controlled over the image, i.e., the user cannot make any change in the rendered image. One example
of its Titles shown on T.V.
Non-interactive Graphics involves only one-way communication between the computer and the user, User
can see the produced image, and he cannot make any change in the image.
(b) Interactive Computer Graphics:
In interactive Computer Graphics user have some controls over the picture, i.e., the user can make any
change in the produced image. One example of it is the ping-pong game.
Interactive Computer Graphics require two-way communication between the computer and the user. A
User can see the image and make any change by sending his command with an input device.
Interactive computer graphics
The graphics which include animation are known as interactive computer graphics. We often visit
websites that include animation of pictures or buttons. When we hover over any button or image then its
shape is changed i.e. it is interactive in nature by which users can feel interaction. Similarly, there are
numerous other graphics which shows the animation when we perform any action on it e.g. on scrolling
browser window the image change its size or location.
Example of interactive computer graphics
 Animation of button or graphics on mouse hover

 Animation of the picture or graphic objects on the scroll of the window or mobile screen
 Drawing on touch screens
 Display of weather forecast or any other moving charts/graphs on the screen
 Animating pictures or graphics in movies
 Graphics animation in video games
Passive computer graphics
The graphics which not change its shape on display are known as passive computer graphics. The images
or graphics objects are used in all the computer application e.g. in word documents, ebooks, websites,
presentations, emails etc.
Passive computer graphics gives details to the texts and it makes our reading more interesting. Also, note
that some graphics make the websites slow to load due to the high quality of the image. To solve the
problem of the large size of the image, we use jpg on websites. Another technique is that you can make
different versions of images by decreasing its quality. So for tablet and mobile devices, low-quality
images are displayed on the website and for a large screen, high quality of images are used. This makes
the website load more quickly.
Example of passive computer graphics
 Data representation through charts

 Graphics elements used in the presentation, emails, word documents, and pdf
 Static images used in websites and mobile apps
 Graphics used in business e.g. graphic used in brochure, business cards, hotel menus
 Interactive graphics respond to what the user does while passive graphics don’t
 Interactive graphics are often more bandwidth hungry than passive graphics
 Interactive graphics are more prone to problems than passive graphics
Question:- Write a short note on graphical input devices.
Solution:-
These Devices include:
1. Keyboard
2. Mouse
3. Trackball
4. Spaceball
5. Joystick
6. Light Pen
7. Digitizer
8. Touch Panels
9. Voice Recognition
10. Image Scanner
Computers only work with numbers. To the computer, everything is a number. For example, the letter ‘A’
to a computer looks like the number 32 in decimal or 0010 0000 in hex (what the computer actually uses).
For graphics, the numbers represent (x,y) position in a 2-dimensional space as well as (r,g,b) colors at
those points.
Humans, on the other hand, process information in pictures and a picture-like format. The alphabet (pick
a human language, there’s plenty to choose from) for conveying information, and pictures for conveying
other information.
For communication, we use letters, numbers, and symbols mainly to convey information. The other side
of that would be pictures. In terms of computers, pictures are just another type of number; but instead of a
group of bytes that humans interpret as the alphabet, graphics work on the idea of points - so numbers to a
computer would be represented to us humans as points.
For graphical input, humans would use something like a digitizer - the most common one being your
mouse. The computer has a routine that converts the mouse movements into point coordinates. The other
type would be a digitizer pad - basically like a mouse pad with a special pen, but it converts the graphics
pen position to a pair of (x,y) coordinates.
Basically, any device that converts analog information to a digital format that a computer can “read” is a
graphical input device. Mouse, digitizer, digital camera, laser measurment device, etc.
For graphical output, the routines in the computer convert the (x,y) position, plus the {r,g,b} color
sequences to points on a monitor. In this case, the computer tells the graphics card what colors to paint at
specific points on the monitor.
With the right program and information, the computer will input graphics information (mouse, digitizer,
distance measurements, etc.) and process this data and present it in a graphical format to a montior (like
Google maps, jpeg picture, DVD movie, etc.)
Other types of graphical output would be a printer or plotter for ‘painting’ graphics onto paper, a 3-d
printer for creating blocks, gears, etc.
Question:- What are the vertical and horizontal retrace?
Solution:-
 Raster scan starts from the top left corner of the screen, scanning horizontally from left to right
one row at a time.
 When it reaches the end of a scanline, it jumps to left end of next scanline (horizontal retrace)
and starts scanning it.
 When electron gun reaches bottom right of the screen, it jumps to the top left corner of the screen
without tracing (vertical retrace) and starts again.

Question:- Briefly explain or write the Bresenham’s line drawing algorithm. How does it removes
the drawback of DDA algorithm?
Solution:-
 Two endpoints of the line are taken as input and left endpoint are stored in (x0,y0).
 Load (x0,y0) in frame buffer, plot the first point.
 Calculate P0=2∆y-∆x which is starting value for the decision parameter

 At each xk along the line starting at k=0, if Pk<0 the next point to plot is (xk+1,yk) and
Pk+1=Pk+2∆y
 Otherwise (Pk>=0), the next point to plot is (xk+1,yk+1) and Pk+1=Pk+2∆y-2∆x
 Repeat step 4 ∆x times.
Advantage:-
 The algorithm takes decision of pixel plotting on the basis of pixel’s calculated(actual) position’s
distance from its upper and lower pixel(which actually exists on the screen).
 Either upper or lower pixel is selected and displayed to which the line’s calculated pixel is closest
to.
 Decision parameter checks the above mentioned criteria and thus removes the DDA algorithm’s
inaccuracy related drawbacks.

Question:- What do you understand by 8 point symmetry of a circle?
Solution:-
In circle, if we know a point on first octant having location as y,x, it can be reflected to get other 3
points. Also, if a point y,x exists in first octant, there must be a point x,y in second octant which can be
reflected to get other unique 3 points in circle. So from 1 point on circle, we can assume other
symmetrical 7 points on a circle. This property is called
as 8-point symmetry of a circle.

Question:- What is aliasing? What is the solution to it?
Solution:-
 The restriction of pixel position on the phosphor coated screen to integer values leads to two
consequences in raster scan:
1) Non-integer value points shift to the nearest integer location, causing deviations of the line.
2) There are steps or sudden jumps in the line from one integer value to the next.
 A common example of aliasing effect is the staircase or jagged appearance.
 These are essentially caused by the problem of trying to map a continuous image onto a discrete
grid of pixels.
 This continuous-to-discrete transformation (scan conversion) is performed by sampling the

continuous line, curve etc. at discrete points that only approximates the true location of the
sampled points.
This problem of pixel generation at alias locations of true objects is known as staircase effect.
Unequal intensity
• A slanted line appears dimmer than a horizontal/vertical line, although all are presented at the
same intensity level.
• In the above figure, pixels on the horizontal and vertical lines are placed at ‘a’ unit apart.
• Distance between two pixels on the diagonal line is, d= √(a2+a2)= √2a=1.414a
• So, density of pixels will be less on diagonal. Therefore, intensity of line will decrease.
Solution of aliasing: Anti-aliasing is a method of fooling the eye that a jagged edge is really smooth.
 Approaches regarding Anti-aliasing:-
1) To increase the resolution to such an extent that more pixels become available to
coincide with the computed values; in other words, to make the steps so small and so many that the
staircase begins to look more smooth.
2) Displaying two or more pixels around the computed location at varying intensities,
rather than a single pixel at rounded off location, which results the image to become hazy.

Question:- Write a short Note on Homogeneous coordinate system or What do you understand by
homogeneous coordinate and why it is used?
Solution:-
In 2D transformation, problem arise when the successive operation involves translation/rotation/scaling

other than origin.
 This forms, [X’’]=[T1][X]+[T2], where [T2] is the additional column matrix containing
translation factor.
 Now, [T1] and [T2] can be combined to form a 3x3 composite transformation matrix
 Where, a,b,d,e are the multiplicative factor of [T1] and c,f are respective x,y translational factors
of [T2].
 PROBLEM:- 3x3 matrix is not compatible for multiplying with a 2x1 position vector matrix.

homogeneous coordinates of the point . , where extra coordinate “h” is known as a weight,
which is homogeneously applied to the Cartesian components.

(x,y) in xy-plane.

Question:- Derive the transformation matrices for 2D reflection about X-axis and Y-axis.
Solution:-
Reflection about x-axis:-
 X-coordinate is not changed and sign of y-coordinate is changed. Thus, if we reflect a point (x,y)
in the x-axis, we get (x,-y)
 x’=x
 y=-y
 So,
 Reflection about y-axis:-

 y-coordinate is not changed and sign of x-coordinate is changed. Thus, if we reflect a point (x,y)

Solution:-
Chapter 5: Clipping
Question:- Discuss briefly or write about Cohen-Sutherland line clipping algorithm with suitable
example. (A short discussion about the binary region codes assigned to line endpoints must precede
the algorithm). What are the advantage and disadvantages of the above algorithm?
Solution:-
 Algorithm:-
1) Given a line segment with endpoint P1(x1,y1) and P2(x2,y2).
2) Compute the 4-bit code for each endpoint with respect to clipping window.
3) If both codes are 0000, line lies completely inside the window and no clipping is required.
4) If both codes have 1 in the same bit position and bitwise AND of the codes is non-zero, line lies
outside the window.
5) If the resultant AND of the two endpoint codes is zero (0000) but there is a 1 present in any or
both endpoint, line may be partially visible or rejected. This line must be clipped at the window
edge.
6) Examine one of the endpoints, say P1(x1,y1). Read P1’s 4-bit code in order. When a set-bit(1) is
found, compute valid intersection I of the corresponding window edge with the line. Replace P1
with I and repeat the algorithm step(6) for the other endpoint P2’s 4-bit code.
The intersection of a line with the window edge:-
 Left window:- xL, y=m(xL-x1)+y1
 Right window:- xR, y=m(xR-x1)+y1
 Top window:- yT, x=x1+(1/m)(yT-y1)
 Bottom window:- yB, x=x1+(1/m)(yB-y1)
Example:-
 Cohen-Sutherland algorithm is used to clip a line P1(70,20), P2(100,10) against a window [lower
left corner (50,10) and upper right hand corner(80,40)]

 P1( outcode)0000
 P2(outcode) 0010
P1 AND P2 = 0000
0010
0000 (line may be partially visible)
 In P2, 1 is found in 3rd bit.
 Intersection with the right side of the window and line is at,
 xR, y=m(xR-x1)+y1  80,y=-1/3(80-70)+20= -1/3(10)+20 =20-10/3 =20-3.33 =16.66
 So, visible line from (70,20) to (80,16.66)
Advantage:- ► Clipping and testing are done in fixed order.
► Efficient when most of the lines to be clipped are either rejected or accepted (not so many
subdivisions).
► Easy to program.
► Most line segments are outside and can be eliminated
Question:- A clipping window ABCD is specified as A(0,0), B(40,0), C(40,40) and D(0,40). Using
mid point subdivision algorithm find the visible portion if any, of the line segment joining the points
P(-10,20) and Q(50,10).
Solution:-
 Outcode of P is 0001
 Outcode of Q is 0010
 Logical AND is zero and both endpoint codes are non-zero. Hence, line cannot be rejected as
invisible.
 Midpoint is, xm=(x1+x2)/2 =(-10+50)/2 =20
 ym=(y1+y2)/2 =(20+10)/2=15
 Outcode of Pm (xm,ym) is 0000.
 Neither segment PPm nor PmQ is either totally visible or totally invisible.
P Q Pm Remark
-10,20 50,10 20,15 Save PPm and continue with PmQ
20,15 50,10 35,12 Continue with PmQ
35,12 50,10 42,11 Continue with PPm
35,12 42,11 38,11 Continue with PmQ
38,11 42,11 40,11 This is the intersection point of line & right window edge

-1,17 1,17 0,17 This is the intersection point of line & left window edge
Visible portion of line segment is from (0,17) to (40,11)
Question:- Find the normalization transformation for windows to viewport which uses the
rectangle whose lower left corner (2,2) and upper right corner (6,10) as a window and the viewport
that has lower left corner at (0,0) and upper right corner at (1,1).
Solution:-
Question:- Describe or write the midpoint subdivision algorithm for line clipping.
Solution:-
At each endpoint,
 1) If the endpoints are visible, then it is farthest visible point. The process is complete. If not,
continue.
 2) If the line endpoints are invisible, no output is generated. The process is complete. If not,
continue.
 3) Divide the line P1P2 at its midpoint, Pm. Apply the previous testes to the two segments P1Pm
and PmP2. If PmP2 is rejected being invisible, the midpoint is an overestimation of the farthest
visible point. Continue with P1Pm. Otherwise, the midpoint is an underestimation of the farthest
visible point. Continue with P2Pm. If the segment becomes so short that the midpoint
corresponds to the accuracy of the machine or as specified to the end points, evaluate the
visibility of the point and the process is complete.
Question:- A clipping window ABCD is located as following: A(100,10), B(160,10), C(160,40),

D(100,40). Using Cohen-Sutherland clipping algorithm find the visible portion of the line segment
P1-P2 where P1(120,5) and P2(180, 30).
Solution:-
Question:- What do you mean by clipping? Name different types of clipping.
Solution:-
 Clipping:- The technique for not showing that part of the drawing which one is not interested in is
called clipping.
Different Types of clipping:-
a) Point clipping
b) Line Clipping (Cohen-sutherland algorithm, Midpoint subdivision algorithm, Cyrus beck
algorithm, Liang-Barsky algorithm)
c) Polygon clipping (Sutherland-Hodgeman algorithm, Weiler-Atherton algorithm)
d) Text Clipping
Question:- Define condition about a point clipping.
Solution:-
Chapter 6: 2D Projection
Question:- Short note on Orthographic and oblique projection.
Solution:-
Orthographic Projection:-
 If the line of projection is perpendicular to the view-plane, then it is called orthographic

projection.
 The parallel projection for orthographic projection is shown in the figure.

 x’=x
 y’=y
 z’=z (As projected in XY-plane having z=0)
 Projection matrix,
Oblique Projection:-
If the line of projection is not perpendicular to the view-plane, then it is called as oblique
projection.
 Equation of line through point P( x1,y1,z1) parallel to vector V=(xp, yp, zp) which passes through
another point Q(x2,y2,z2) is,
(x2,y2,z2)=(x1,y1,z1)+t*(xp,yp,zp); xp,yp,zp are vectors along x,y,z axis
t be any real number
 x2=x1+t*xp
 y2=y1+t*yp
 z2= z1+t*zp
Now, z2 =0
So, t= - z1/zp
 x2=x1- z1/zp*xp
 y2=y1- z1/zp*yp
Question:- What is projection? How many projections are there? Differentiate between oblique and
orthographic projection.
Solution:-
Projection:- Projection is the mapping of a 3D object into a view-plane. The requirement of

projection whenever we see an 3D object in a 2D screen (monitor), then we have to map a 3D object
into a 2D plane or in a 3D plane, with a fixed z-value.
Difference between oblique and orthographic projection:-
Oblique projection is a type of parallel projection. In both oblique projection and orthographic projection,
parallel lines of the source object produce parallel lines in the projected image. The projectors in oblique
projection intersect the projection plane at an oblique angle to produce the projected image, as opposed to
the perpendicular angle used in orthographic projection.
Question:- What is the difference between parallel and perspective projection?
Solution:-
 Perspective projection is located as a finite point whereas Parallel projection is located at

infinite points.
 Perspective projection form a realistic picture of object whereas Parallel projection do not form
realistic view of object.
 Perspective projection cannot preserve the relative proportion of an object whereas Parallel
projection can preserve the relative proportion of an object.
 Projector in perspective projection is not parallel whereas Projector in parallel projection is
parallel.
 Perspective projection represents the object in three dimensional way whereas Parallel
projection represents the object in a different way like telescope.
 The lines of perspective projection are not parallel whereas the lines of parallel projection are
parallel.
 Perspective projection cannot give the accurate view of object whereas Parallel projection can
give the accurate view of object.
Question:- Explain in brief different categories of parallel and perspective projection in 2D.
Solution:-
Perspective Projection:-
 There is a fixed point from which the object is viewed, is called the center of projection.
 There is a fixed plane on which the object is seen, is called projection or view-plane.
 Technique is to draw lines from each point of the 3D object with center of projection and find out
the intersecting point with the projection line & view-plane and join the intersecting points to
draw the projected view.
 C is the center of projection placed at –d distance on x-axis, XY plane is the view plane, P is the
object point, P’ is the projected point of P.
 From triangle ABC & A’OC,
 A’O/AB=OC/BC  x’/x=d/(z+d)  x’=x*d/(z+d)
 y’=y*d/(z+d)
 Z’=0 (Projected on XY plane having z=0)
 In matrix form,
Type of Perspective Projection:-
1) One-point:- It is simplest to draw. It contains only one vanishing point on the horizon line.
2) Two-point:- Gives better impression of depth. It contains two vanishing points on the horizon
line.
3) Three-point:- Most difficult to draw. It contains three vanishing points, two on the horizon line
and one another below or above the horizon.
Parallel Projection:-
 The projected view can be drawn as- draw the parallel line from each point of the object to the
view plane.
 The intersecting point with the line & view plane is called the projected point.
 Connect the projected point accordingly & projected view is achieved.
Type of parallel projection:-

a) Orthographic Projection:-
 If the line of projection is perpendicular to the view-plane, then it is called orthographic

projection.
 The parallel projection for orthographic projection is shown in the figure.
 x’=x
 y’=y
 z’=z (As projected in XY-plane having z=0)
 Projection matrix,
b) Oblique Projection:-
If the line of projection is not perpendicular to the view-plane, then it is called as oblique
projection.
 Equation of line through point P( x1,y1,z1) parallel to vector V=(xp, yp, zp) which passes through
another point Q(x2,y2,z2) is,
(x2,y2,z2)=(x1,y1,z1)+t*(xp,yp,zp); xp,yp,zp are vectors along x,y,z axis
t be any real number
 x2=x1+t*xp
 y2=y1+t*yp
 z2= z1+t*zp
Now, z2 =0
So, t= - z1/zp
 x2=x1- z1/zp*xp
 y2=y1- z1/zp*yp
Type of Oblique Parallel Projection:-
Cavalier projection:- All lines perpendicular to the projection plane are projected with no change in
length.
Cabinet projection:- Lines which are perpendicular to the projection plane are projected at ½ of the
length.
Type of Orthographic Parallel Projection:-

Chapter 7: Hidden surface removal

Question:- Write down the Z-buffer algorithm or a short note on z-buffer algorithm.
Solution:-
 Initialize IB=Background intensity for all (x,y), depth(x,y)=Zmax (-∞) and refresh (x,y)=IB
 For each position on each polygon surface:-
 a) Calculate depth Z for each position (x,y) on the polygon
 b) If Z<depth(x,y) then depth(x,y)=Z and refresh(x,y)=IS(x,y)

 IS is the projected intensity value of the surface at position (x,y), which has the minimum value of
Z, at the current stage of iteration.
 Equation of the surface:- Ax+By+Cz+D=0  z= (-Ax-By-D)/C
Advantage:-
 It is easy to implement
 Total number of polygon can be arbitrarily large
 It can be implemented in hardware
Disadvantage:-
 It requires additional buffer and hence large memory
 It is a time consuming process.
Question:- Write a short note on hidden surface removal.
Solution:-
 One of the most challenging problems in computer graphics is the removal of hidden parts from
images of solid objects.
 In real life, the opaque material of these objects obstructs the light rays from hidden parts and
prevents us from seeing them.
 In the computer generation, no such automatic elimination takes place when objects are projected
onto the screen coordinate system.
 Instead, all parts of every object, including many parts that should be invisible are displayed.
 To remove these parts to create a more realistic image, we must apply a hidden line or hidden
surface algorithm to set of objects.
 The algorithm operates on different kinds of scene models, generate various forms of output or
cater to images of different complexities.
 All use some form of geometric sorting to distinguish visible parts of objects from those that are
hidden.
 Just as alphabetical sorting is used to differentiate words near the beginning of the alphabet from
those near the ends.
 Geometric sorting locates objects that lie near the observer and are therefore visible.
 Hidden line and Hidden surface algorithms capitalize on various forms of coherence to reduce the
computing required to generate an image.
 Different types of coherence are related to different forms of order or regularity in the image.
 Scan line coherence arises because the display of a scan line in a raster image is usually very
similar to the display of the preceding scan line.
 Frame coherence in a sequence of images designed to show motion recognizes that successive
frames are very similar.
 Object coherence results from relationships between different objects or between separate parts of
the same objects.
 A hidden surface algorithm is generally designed to exploit one or more of these coherence
properties to increase efficiency.
 Hidden surface algorithm bears a strong resemblance to two-dimensional scan conversions.
Types of hidden surface detection algorithms
 Object space methods

 Image space methods
Object space methods: In this method, various parts of objects are compared. After comparison visible,
invisible or hardly visible surface is determined. These methods generally decide visible surface. In the
wireframe model, these are used to determine a visible line. So these algorithms are line based instead of
surface based. Method proceeds by determination of parts of an object whose view is obstructed by other
object and draws these parts in the same color.
Image space methods: Here positions of various pixels are determined. It is used to locate the visible
surface instead of a visible line. Each point is detected for its visibility. If a point is visible, then the pixel
is on, otherwise off. So the object close to the viewer that is pierced by a projector through a pixel is
determined. That pixel is drawn is appropriate color.
Algorithms used for hidden line surface detection:-
 Back Face Removal Algorithm

 Z-Buffer Algorithm
 Painter Algorithm
 Scan Line Algorithm
 Subdivision Algorithm
 Floating horizon Algorithm
Chapter 8: Curves

properly choosing another set of control points draw a Bezier curve such that the second curve is
joined smoothly with the first curve.
Solution:-
 Let the cubic Bezier curve P(u) defined by P0=[2,1], P1=[3,2], P2=[5,0] and P3=[6,2] with
0≤u≤1.
 The curve starts at P0 i.e., P(u=0) and ends at P3 i.e. P(u=1).
 We have to choose another set of four control points say Q0,Q1,Q2,Q3 such that the cubic Bezier
curve say Q(u’), 0≤u’≤1 defined by them joins the curve P(u) at P3 smoothly.
 From the fact that the last control point doesn’t feature in the C2 continuity condition, we are free
to choose Q3 without affecting continuity at junction P3=Q0.After plotting all the points P0, P1,
P2 and P3=Q0 and Q1 we choose Q3 as (6, 12).
Question:- Find equation of Bezier curve which passes through points (0,0) and (-2,1) and is

 Corresponding cubic Bezier curve is given by,

 In other possible way,
 If P0=(0,0) P1=(2,0) P2=(7,5) P3=(-2,1)
 Then resulting Bezier curve is given by,
