The previous edition covered OpenGL through version 1.2. This fourth edition of the best-selling guide describes all of the latest features of OpenGL versions 1.3 and 1.4, as well as the important OpenGL Architecture Review Board extensions.You will find clear explanations of OpenGL functionality and many basic computer graphics techniques, such as building and rendering 3D models; interactively viewing objects from different perspective points; and using shading, lighting, and texturing effects for greater realism. In addition, this book provides in-depth coverage of advanced techniques, including texture mapping, antialiasing, fog and atmospheric effects, NURBS, image processing, and more. The text also explores other key topics such as enhancing performance, OpenGL extensions, and cross-platform techniques.This fourth edition has been extensively updated to incl
