ESPB		6.0	Status	elective
Condition		The student must have completed the course SI4RG or IR4RG.
The goal		Expansion of knowledge and understanding of the architecture of modern graphics processors (GPU). Understanding of the principle of GPU programming through writing shader programs. Understanding and mastering the principles of modern graphics libraries for visualization and displaying of 3D scenes. Understanding of the techniques for efficient rendering of 3D scenes. Understanding of techniques for achieving more realistic rendering results, such as shadow casting, reflection, material properties and light sources. Acquisition of skills for development of 3D graphics applications and writing shader programs.
The outcome		Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to: - write programs for rendering the contents of complex 3D scenes using modern graphics libraries, such as OpenGL - write and apply shader programs for 3D scene visualization - use techniques for efficient rendering of 3D scenes - use techniques for improving the visual quality and realism of the rendered scenes - solve problems of interaction with the contents of 3D scenes - develop applications that manage complex 3D scenes using the Unity system
