History of computer graphics

 Enjoyed watching life of pi or Spiderman series!! But ever wondered about the history of computer graphics? Check this out.

Soon around 1940s and 50s people started experimenting in computer graphics, like John Whitney—but it was only by the early 1960s when digital computers had become widely established, that new avenues for innovative computer graphics blossomed. People initially started using them mainly for scientific, engineering and other research purposes, but artistic experimentation began to make its appearance by the mid-1960s. By the mid-'70s, plenty of such efforts were beginning to enter into public media. In those days computer graphics involved 2D imaginary, though increasingly, with the I'm impoverishment of computer power , efforts to achieve 3-dimensional realism became the emphasis. By the late 1980s, photo-realistic 3D was beginning to appear in cinema movies, and by mid-'90s had developed to the point where 3D animation could be used for entire feature film production.

There were quite a few steps taken in the direction of using graphics for developing game. In 1961, Ivan Sutherland a student of MIT created computer drawing program known as Sketchpad. This could solve some of the basic graphic problems of that period. It allowed the creation of simple shapes on the computer screen, save them and view them later.

In 1961, Steve Russell created the first video game ‘Space wars’.
In 1963, E. E. Zajac, the scientist at Bell telephony laboratory made a film ‘Simulation of a two-giro gravity audio control system’ using graphics.

As the interest in making images with computers bloomed, computer graphics made the move from the lab to full scale production in 1970’s. In 1970’s, graphics were used extensively in movies. Although the graphics were slow and not that enticing, still it marked the evolution of computer graphics.

The use of computer graphics further got everything emphasized  by the movie Tron in 1982. It used four major production companies to come up with a 20 minute of full 3D graphics. Though the movie couldn't attract many viewers, but it left an impact on the movie makers with the potential of graphics in the industry.

Compter Graphics In Film Industry

Ever wondered how far the film industry had reached in the past few years!!
How important are computers in the entertainment sector??
No!!! Then it's time for you to read this out now.

Let me take you some four hundred years back, there used to be called an agrarian age. That means agriculture was the main source of income in those days. The 90/10 rule was very prevalent, which means 90%of the land was in control of just 10%of the people. It was very difficult for a normal, talented and skillful man to join the 10% club unless and until he/she was born in it.
With the start of the 20th century, there came the industrial age. But!! Nothing really changed. The 90/10 rule was still prevalent, which again means that 90% of the industries were in control of just 10% of the people. But soon around the 1980s.. with the dawn of internet and the IT boom we are now living in the the information age and it is very much possible for anybody and everybody to enter the 10% club if he or she is talented and knowledgeable enough. Anybody and everybody can create a success story. And again those who are able to admire and bring in the best usage of computers in this twenty first century will be the real heroes because this is the era of technology, information and talent. Computers have always played a vital role in the entertainment sector. The only reason why we are able to recreate our thoughts is mainly because of computers..

Recent computer advancements have redefined various aspects of making movies, commercials, games, etc. Capabilities of computer technology have allowed the discovery of endless innovation possibilities. These days computer generated effects have acquired center stage in everything from a basic advertisement, to games, big budget films to television. This wasn’t the case before the emergence of computer graphics.

Before computer graphics made inroads in the entertainment industry, the world of entertainment was a duller place. The emergence of computer and its understanding has made the interpretation of data easier. It has had a severe impact on many types of media and has transformed animation, gaming industry and movies. Prior to becoming a vital element of entertainment, it underwent a transformation by leaps and bounds.
So keep enjoying the rate of computers graphics!
