 ABSTRACT

Computer graphics is one of the most powerful and interesting fact of video
games, animation, multimedia predominantly works using computer graphics. These are
used today in everyday life, advanced graphics in movies or the daily weather report
display on television. The combination of computers, networks and the complex human
visual system through computer graphics has led to new ways of displaying information,
seeing virtual worlds and communicating with people and machines. Computer graphics
is concerned with all aspects of producing pictures or images using a computer.

In the present project we exhibit Working of Carousel using OPENGL and GLUT,
this project is user interactive since the options are displayed on the screen .We show the
movement of light source, four compartments of carousel, fencing .Characters in the help
window specifies particular action that needs to be performed. User can interact using
both keyboard and mouse interface. The main aim of the project is to develop a suitable
graphic package using OpenGL and to implement the things that are learnt in theory .The
scope of the mini project include various built in functions of OpenGL along with some
user defined functions. These functions are implemented in the design of this mini
project.
