A PNG file contains a single image in an extensible structure of chunks, encoding the basic pixels and other information such as textual comments and integrity checks documented in RFC 2083. [ 7] PNG files have the ".png" file extension and the "image/png" MIME media type. [ 8] PNG was published as an informational RFC 2083 in March 1997 and as ...
Java OpenGL ( JOGL) is a wrapper library that allows OpenGL to be used in the Java programming language. [ 1][ 2] It was originally developed by Kenneth Bradley Russell and Christopher John Kline, and was further developed by the Game Technology Group at Sun Microsystems. Since 2010, it has been an independent open-source project under a BSD ...
OpenGL ( Open Graphics Library[ 4]) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is typically used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU), to achieve hardware-accelerated rendering .
The OpenGL Utility Toolkit ( GLUT) is a library of utilities for OpenGL programs, which primarily perform system-level I/O with the host operating system. Functions performed include window definition, window control, and monitoring of keyboard and mouse input. Routines for drawing a number of geometric primitives (both in solid and wireframe ...
Texture mapping. Mapping a two-dimensional texture onto a 3D model. 1: 3D model without textures. 2: Same model with textures. Texture mapping[ 1][ 2][ 3] is a method for mapping a texture on a computer-generated graphic. "Texture" in this context can be high frequency detail, surface texture, or color .
Computer graphics deals with generating images and art with the aid of computers. Computer graphics is a core technology in digital photography, film, video games, digital art, cell phone and computer displays, and many specialized applications. A great deal of specialized hardware and software has been developed, with the displays of most ...
The OpenGL Utility Library ( GLU) is a computer graphics library for OpenGL . It consists of a number of functions that use the base OpenGL library to provide higher-level drawing routines from the more primitive routines that OpenGL provides. It is usually distributed with the base OpenGL package. GLU is not implemented in the embedded version ...
