Computer Graphics:

• the use of computers to synthesize and manipulate sensory information / turn digital information into sensory stimuli.

Computer Vision

• an inverse. (Visual –> Digital)

Modeling + Rendering

Rendering Solution (3D vertices -> 2D):

• Perspective projection, “pinhole”

Rasterization

• continuous –> discrete representation on a raster grid (pixel grid)
• Diamond rule (used by modern GPUs): light up pixel if line passes through associated diamond
  
• Incremental line rasterization (not the way in use though)
