Frederic Parke
Edit ProfileCareer
In 1972 in a project partially financed by Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Parke made the first 3D animation of a representation of a human face. This animation was wireframe graphics underneath but used the now classic Gouraud shading that estimates curving surfaces that was invented the previous year by computer scientist Henri Gouraud. He has worked at the New York Institute of Technology Computer Graphics Laboratory.
Parke currently teaches at Texas Agricultural and Mechanical University in the Visualization Sciences program
