The document discusses the history and development of 2D, 3D, and 4D computer graphics. It notes that 2D graphics originated in the 1950s based on vector graphics and were later replaced by raster graphics. Major developments included PostScript and X Window System. The document also briefly mentions that 3D projections have been used to visualize higher dimensions like tesseracts in 4D space. 4DX technology was first launched in 2009 in South Korea and involved enhancing movies with environmental effects to simulate dimensions beyond standard viewing.

1. 2D,
3D, 4D, 5D,
7D, 9D, 11D

3. 2D computer graphics are mainly used in applications that were originally developed
upon traditional printing and drawing technologies,
such as
typography,
cartography,
technical drawing,
Advertising…

6. 2D computer graphics started in the 1950s, based on vector graphics devices. These
were largely supplanted by raster-based devices in the following decades. The
PostScript language and the X Window System protocol were landmark developments
in the field.

7. William Fetter was credited with coining the term computer graphics in 1961 to describe
his work at Boeing.
One of the first displays of computer animation was Future world (1976), which included
an animation of a human face and a hand that had originally appeared in the 1972
experimental short A Computer Animated Hand, created by University of Utah students
Edwin Catmull and Fred Parke.

15. 4DX was launched by South Korean theater chain, CJ CGV with the release
of New Line Cinema's Journey to the Center of the Earth in Seoul in 2009.
In 2010, after the technology's success with the 4DX screening of Avatar.
