WebGL seminar at TUT


A WebGL seminar will be organized at Tampere University of Technology by Prof. Tommi Mikkonen and Dr. Antero Taivalsaari. The seminar will start at December 9, 2010 and end at spring 2011.

In this seminar, WebGL and the emerging WebGL libraries will be investigated in the form of student presentations, application development exercises and group discussions. Students will prepare a presentation on one of the topics they choose, and will give a presentation in front of the seminar participants to summarize their findings. Students will also build sample applications using at least one of the libraries mentioned above.
