Rasterisation: 3D images, 2D images & Overview

In computer graphics, rasterisation (British English) or rasterization (American English) is the task of taking an image described in a vector graphics format (shapes) and converting it into a raster image which represents the original image. The rasterized image may then be displayed on a computer display, video display, or printer, or stored in a…
