▪ Interactive and Non-Interactive Computer Graphics
▪ Concept of Pixel
▪ Aspect Ratio
▪ Resolution
Non-Interactive or Passive Computer Graphics:
In non-interactive computer graphics, the picture is produced on the
monitor, and the user does not have any controlled over the image, i.e.,
the user cannot make any change in the rendered image. One example
of its Titles shown on T.V.
Non-interactive Graphics involves only one-way communication
between the computer and the user, User can see the produced image,
and he cannot make any change in the image.
Interactive Computer Graphics:
In interactive Computer Graphics user have some controls over the
picture, i.e., the user can make any change in the produced image. One
example of it is the ping-pong game.
Interactive Computer Graphics require two-way communication
between the computer and the user. A User can see the image and
make any change by sending his command with an input device.
Concept of Pixel
The full form of the pixel is "Picture Element.“
It is also known as "PEL." Pixel is the smallest element of an image on a
computer display, whether they are LCD or CRT monitors.
A screen is made up of a matrix of thousands or millions of pixels.
A pixel is represented with a dot or a square on a computer screen.
• The good thing is that a pixel cannot be seen as they are very small
which result in a smooth and clear image rather than "pixelated.“
• Each pixel has a value, or we can say a unique logical address.
• It can have only one color at a time.
• Color of a pixel is determined by the number of bits which is used to
represent it.
• A resolution of a computer screen depends upon graphics card and
display monitor, the quantity, size and color combination of pixels.
As we know that an
image is build up of
thousands and
millions of pixels. If
we zoom in the
image, we will be
able to see some of
the pixels.
Aspect Ratio
Aspect ratio is the ratio of the width of an image to the height of the
image. This ratio is expressed as x:y, and differs in case of different
images used in photography, television, computer applications and so
on. Changing this ratio may distort the images.
Aspect ratio plays an important role in resizing. During resizing, the
aspect ratio must remain same in order to keep the image undistorted.
A distorted aspect ratio leads to stretching of the image.
Resolution
The resolution of an image is the total number of pixels displayed on
your computer or television screen. Generally, the higher the
resolution, the higher is the quality of the image.
For computer images, the resolution is usually described in pixels per
inch (PPI), which is a value that determines how many pixels are
displayed per inch in a given picture.
The higher the resolution, the crisper is the image and the higher the
PPI value since there’s a higher number of pixels in every inch. If there
are too few pixels in an image, they will look too large and “chunky” if
the image is stretched, resulting in pixelated images.
Aspect Ratio Vs Resolution
Aspect Ratio Resolution
Definition Aspect ratio is the ratio of the The resolution of an image is
width of an image to the height the total number of pixels
of the image (x:y). displayed on your computer or
television screen.
About Original aspect ratio (OAR) and The resolution of digital images
Modified aspect ratio (MAR) are can be described as pixel
the dimensions in which the film resolution, spatial resolution,
is originally produced, or altered spectral resolution, temporal
to fit a particular screen, and radiometric resolution.
respectively.
Commonly Used The common aspect ratios used The common monitor
are 1:1, 4:3, 16:9, 19:9. resolutions are 640x480,
800x600 and 1024x768,
1920x1080.
