3D Graphics Programming With QuickDraw 3D
QuickDraw 3D is a graphics library developed by Apple Computer that programmers can use to create models of three-dimensional objects and render images of those models on the screen, a printer, or other output device. The QuickDraw 3D programming interface, which is cross platform, is based on the C programming language.This book explains how to
- define 3D models and apply attributes to those models
- create images of 3D models from various camera angles
- use the 3D Viewer without using the low-level APIs
- allow a user to interact with the objects in a 3D model
