Introduction

This lecture discusses the basic principles of OpenGL, its brief history, and its use today.

Uniforms, VBO, VAO

This lecture discusses setting uniform variables, existing types of graphic primitives and how to use Vertex Buffer and Vertex Array objects for rendering.

Rasterization, Transformations

In this lecture, we will revisit rasterization, exploring its underlying principles and operations. Following this, we will delve into transformations, such as translation, scaling, and rotation, within the graphics pipeline.

Framebuffer and Advanced Rendering Techniques

This lecture explores the framebuffer and the additional more advanced effects, such as stereoviewing, clip planes, fog, and blending.

Lights and Materials

This lecture explores the framebuffer and the additional more advanced effects, such as stereoviewing, clip planes, fog, and blending.

Textures 1

In this lecture, we will discuss the basic principles of using textures in OpenGL.

Textures 2 & Framebuffers

In this lecture, we will continue with more advanced topics related to textures. Furthermore, we will discuss offscreen rendering into custom framebuffer objects.

UBOs, Performance, Multisampling

In this lecture, we will learn about Uniform Buffer Objects, techniques for improving rendering performance, such as instancing, and methods for handling antialiasing through multisampling.

Fragment Operations

In this lecture, we will discuss several tests and operations that can happen after rasterization. We will also briefly touch upon normal mapping, skinning, and culling.
