Welcome

We are a computer graphics group based in Yale’s Computer Science Department. At Yale we are immersed in a unique environment with world-class faculties in the visual arts and sciences, including Art, Architecture, Art History, Drama, Psychology and Medicine. We have access to rich resources in the collections of the university’s libraries and museums. The Yale campus itself and the surrounding Connecticut Shoreline provide us with visual inspiration and challenges.

The Computer Graphics Achievement award is given each year to recognize an individual for an outstanding achievement in computer graphics and interactive techniques.

The Graphics Group has released a new online tool which allows users to extract textures from unconstrained Images. The tool, which is available on the new graphics service site, allows a user to upload photos, and provides a simple wizard to guide them in the extraction process. A step by step tutorial is also available.
