. What is the meaning of interactive computer graphics? List the various applications of thecomputer graphics.Ans : The term interactive graphics refers to devices and systems that facilitate the man -machine graphic communication, in a way, which is more convenient than the writingconvention. For example, to draw a straight line between two points, one has to input thecoordinates of the two end points. In interactive graphics with the help of graphical inputtechnique by indicating two end points on the display screen draws the line.Various applications of the computer graphics are listed below :-I. Building Design and ConstructionII. Electronics DesignIII. Mechanical DesignIV. Entertainment and AnimationV. Aerospace IndustryVI. Medical TechnologyVII. CartographyVIII. Art and Commerce.2. Explain in detail the Hardware required for effective graphics on the computer system.Ans : The hardware components required to generate interactive graphics are the input device,the output device (usually display) and the computer system. The human operator is also anintegral part of the interactive system. The text and graphics displayed act as an input to thehuman vision system and, therefore, the reaction of the human being will depend on howquickly one can see and appreciate the graphics present on the display.3. Compare Raster scan system with random scan system.Ans : In raster scan display, the electron beam is swept across the screen, one row at a timefrom top to bottom. The picture definition is stored in a memory area called refresh buffer or frame buffer. In random scan display unit, a CRT has the electron beam directed only to the parts of the screen where a picture is to be drawn. It draws a picture one line at a time and so itis referred to as vector displays.
Raster Scan The Most common type of graphics monitor employing a CRT is the raster-scan Display, based on television technology. In a raster- scan system; the electron beam is swept across thescreen, one row at a time from top to bottom. The picture definition is stored in a memory areacalled the refresh buffer or frame buffer. Each point on the screen is called pixel. On a black and system with one bit per pixel, the frame buffer is called bitmap. For systems with multiple bits per pixel, the frame buffer is referred to as a pix map.Refreshing on raster scan display is carried out at the rate of 60 to 80 frames per second. Somedisplays use interlaced refresh procedure. First, all points on the even numbered scan lines aredisplayed then all the points along odd numbered lines are displayed. This is an effectivetechnique for avoiding flickering. Random Scan Display When operated as a random-scan display unit, a CRT has the electron beam directed only tothe parts of the screen where a picture is to be drawn. Random scan monitors draw a pictureone line at a time and for this reason they are also referred as vector displays (or stroke-writingor calligraphic displays). The component lines of a picture can be drawn and refreshed by arandom-scan system in any specified order. A pen plotter operates in a similar way and is anexample of a random-scan, hard-copy device.Refresh rate on a random-scan system depends on the number of lines to be displayed. Picturedefinition is now stored as a set of line- drawing commands in an area of memory referred toas the refresh display file. Sometimes the refresh display file is called the display list, display program, or simply the refresh buffer.4. How many colors are possible if a. 24 bits / pixel is used b. 8 bits / pixel is used, justify your answer Ans : a). 24 bit color provides 16.7 million colors per pixels, That 24 bits are divided into 3 bytes; one each for the red, green, and blue components of a pixel. b). 256, 8 bits per pixel = 2^8 colors.Widely accepted industry standard uses 3 bytes, or 24 bits, per pixel, with one byte for each primary color results in 256 different intensity levels for each primary color. Thus a pixel cantake on a color from 256 X 256 X 256 or 16.7 million possible choices. In Bi-level imagerepresentation one bit per pixel is used to represent black-and white images. In gray levelimage 8 bits per pixel to allow a total of 256 intensity or gray levels. Image representationusing lookup table can be viewed as a compromise between our desire to have a lower storagerequirement and our need to support a reasonably sufficient number of simultaneous colors.
