Appendix a Basic Mathematics for 3D Computer Graphics
Appendix A Basic Mathematics for 3D Computer Graphics A.1 Vector Operations (),, A vector v is a represented as v1 v2 v3 , which has a length and direction. The location of a vector is actually undefined. We can consider it is parallel to the line (),, (),, from origin to a 3D point v. If we use two points A1 A2 A3 and B1 B2 B3 to (),, represent a vector AB, then AB = B1 – A1 B2 – A2 B3 – A3 , which is again parallel (),, to the line from origin to B1 – A1 B2 – A2 B3 – A3 . We can consider a vector as a ray from a starting point to an end point. However, the two points really specify a length and a direction. This vector is equivalent to any other vectors with the same length and direction. A.1.1 The Length and Direction The length of v is a scalar value as follows: 2 2 2 v = v1 ++v2 v3 . (EQ 1) 378 Appendix A The direction of the vector, which can be represented with a unit vector with length equal to one, is: ⎛⎞v1 v2 v3 normalize()v = ⎜⎟--------,,-------- -------- . (EQ 2) ⎝⎠v1 v2 v3 That is, when we normalize a vector, we find its corresponding unit vector. If we consider the vector as a point, then the vector direction is from the origin to that point. A.1.2 Addition and Subtraction (),, (),, If we have two points A1 A2 A3 and B1 B2 B3 to represent two vectors A and B, then you can consider they are vectors from the origin to the points.

The development of these systems is highly effort intensive and entails usage of lots of creative services. There is no one model or approach for designing and developing multimedia content. Implementation of a typical Multimedia application is done using specific authoring tools or programming languages. Depending on one’s creativity, one can mix and match the various tools. This paper highlights the use of the creative services and process flow in the multimedia application development .This paper also provides some insight into the tools that are used for developing multimedia applications. 1. INTRODUCTION A typical multimedia application design process comprises of many major processes as illustrated in figure -1. The most important process in the entire development cycle is the content generation. This process involves enormous creativity. This paper mainly focuses on the activities involved in the creative services of multimedia design process and is discussed in section 2 and explains a few of the useful design tools in the following sections.

Windows 10 Modern Partner Opportunity We Are Living in a Time of Inflection
Windows 10 Modern Partner Opportunity We are living in a time of inflection. Digital transformation is the biggest change any of us has seen in our lifetime. In 2018, two-thirds of the Global 2000 CEOs will put digital transformation at the heart of their corporate strategy. Digital transformation is fundamentally changing the ways companies use technology to empower employees, optimize operations, transform products and engage customers. The primary factors that are driving this transformation include: • With business landscape and customer expectations evolving daily, there is a shift away from routine tasks and hierarchical decisions - to a way of operating that requires every employee to be creative, think critically and collaborate with others to address the task at hand - and harnessing employee ingenuity is becoming a critical part for businesses to stay successful and relevant. • For the first time in human history, we have five generations in the workforce (with millennials projected to be 50% of workforce by 2020) • As a result, the workforce has become increasingly diverse and mobile, with individuals working across multiple locations and multiple devices throughout the workday. • And teamwork has been essential to the way work gets done. Organizations are more Digital networked, helping to manage the increased flow of information and making insights more discoverable. transformation • People have new expectations for how and why we work – seeking physical and digital workspaces that feel inclusive and open where they can easily share and connect and work together, • With modern technology people, teams and companies can now discover and connect to the best expertise available, without geographical or physical boundaries – and it allows subject matter experts to scale their knowledge to the broadest extent.
