Definition
- Computer graphics, the use of computers to create and process images, is an essential part of human-computer interaction (HCI) and a central part of contemporary visual culture. Artists have been capturing their imagination on paper in static form for many centuries, but in the space of just a few decades, computer scientists have mastered the art of representing images in a dynamic, digital form that can be continually transformed in any number of imaginative ways.
