Evolution of Computer Graphics

The evolution of computer graphics began in the 1950s with early experiments at MIT. Pioneering work was done at the University of Utah in the 1960s and 1970s, developing 3D modeling and rendering techniques. This led to increased realism and set foundations for the industry. In the 1980s, the release of personal computers and movies like Star Trek II showcased growing applications of computer graphics. Pixar's Toy Story in 1995 marked a milestone as the first full-length animated film made with computers.
