Course content
This subject deals with some of the fundamental principles of a technical curve representation in computer graphics (conic sections, cycloid, helix). It is mainly focused on the curves used in technical applications such as Autodesk AutoCAD, DesignCAD, Adobe Illustrator, Blender, which are often implemented in the high school education process. This course covers parametric and implicit forms, power basis forms, Bézier, b-spline, and NURBS curves.

Learning activities and teaching methods
unspecified
Learning outcomes
The goal is to understand the fundamental principles of mathematical interpretation of a curve and its implication in computer graphics.
Students will be able to construct a mathematical representation of a curve in various forms and understand its implementation in computer graphics.
Prerequisites
high school calculus
