Who is this?(and why does he talk English?)
• Universitair Docent in Multimedia & Geometry group• Originally from Germany, since 2008 in Utrecht• Still struggling with the language though
(ik snap het wel, maar praten gaat nog niet)
• Teaching in the bachelor:• Graphics (4th period)• Introductie project (2nd period, coordination & tutor)
• Research interests:• Mostly mobile multimedia and mobile interaction

Graphics (1st year, 4th period)
• Computer graphics are graphics created using a computer and, more generally, the representation of image data by a computer
• Sub-areas• 2D computer graphics• 3D computer graphics• Computer animation
• We will deal with 3D graphics
Graphics (1st year, 4th period)
• How do we get 3D data on a 2D screen?
1. Describe it (aka 3D modeling)
2. Do a perspective projection3. Add colors, texture, light,
etc. (aka shading)

Graphics (1st year, 4th period)
• Lecture (college, 2 times 2 hours per week)• Focus on the basics (including lots of mathematics)
• Exercises (werkcollege, 2 hours per week)• Deepen understanding of theory and preparation for
written exams (in smaller groups)• Programming assignments
(practicum, 2+X hours per week)• Apply theory in practice (shader programming)

Graphics (1st year, 4th period)
• Some results from last year’s course:
Note: this year we will program shaders instead of ray tracing

3D on mobiles
Some examples of what I’m doing …
(well, technically it’s what students that I’m supervising are doing)
3D interfaces
Hand tracking and augmented reality

Introductie project (1st year, 2nd period)
• Lecture (6 lectures, Frans Wiering)• Some basics about software & game development
• Meetings (weekly, with begeleiders)• Progress, planning, organizing
• Programming (on your own, in groups of 5)• Develop a game in a small team
• Symposium (at the end, all)• Present and demonstrate your game

Introductie project (1st year, 2nd period)
• So, what exactly will we develop?• Well, a game …
e.g. an implementation of a classic (2D) game with some state-of-the-art extension (e.g. sound, graphics, interface)

Introductie project (1st year, 2nd period) • Major purpose of this project:
• Experience what’s special in a game development process (and software development in general)
• Not that much game design (will be taught in Game Ontwerp, 3rd period )
• Not that much advanced, fancy 3D graphics (will be taught in Graphics, 4th period)
• That’s why you should implement a classic 2D game• But: you are welcome to bring your own ideas!
• Why do I not find any info on this online?• Because it’s a new course and we are still setting it up (info will be online by
end of Sept / early Oct)
