The subject is devoted to selected methods of three-dimensional modelling including object recognition and the use of virtual reality for construction of virtual objects and scenery around. Topics studied include elements of computer vision in informatics, the use of the VRML language in the MATLAB environment and web applications.
Aim of the course -
