Graphics overview
- [Instructor] Graphics rendering is essential for any user interface application, translating code into visual content displayed on screens. Modern day applications typically leverage the computer's GPU for this task. The GPU operates at a low level, requiring multiple layers to bridge the gap between application code and the hardware itself. These layers include components provided by the operating system, graphics libraries, and application frameworks, each contributing to the interaction between software and the GPU. In this chapter, we'll explore some of the key systems developed for the Windows operating system that serve as the foundations for .net applications. By understanding these layers, we can gain deeper insights into how .net applications leverage the GPU for rendering and computation. Browsers and mobile devices have their own specialized methods for handling graphics rendering. While this is a fascinating topic worth exploring, it falls outside the scope of this…
