摘要
A two-part introduction to geometric algebra which intends to alert in the existence of a small set of products that appears to generate all geometric constructions in one consistent framework. Using this framework can simplify the set of data structures representing objects because it inherently encodes all relationships and symmetries of the geometrical primitives in those operators. This paper presents some of the most important or useful ideas of geometric algebra as it relates to computer graphics.
