Computer Graphics.

Computer graphics involves the creation, display, and storage of images on a computer with the use of specialized software. Computer graphics fills an essential role in many everyday applications. Three-dimensional (3-D) animation has revolutionized video games and resulted in box-office hits in theaters. Virtual images of people's bodies and tissues are used in medicine for teaching, surgery simulations, and diagnoses. Educators and scientists are able to develop 3-D models that illustrate principles in a more comprehensible manner than a two-dimensional (2-D) image can. Through the use of such imagery, architects and engineers can prepare virtual buildings and models to test options prior to construction. Businesses use computer graphics to prepare charts and graphs for better comprehension during presentations.
