Aug 21, 2019 · Ivan Sutherland, PhD ’63. In Scarsdale, New York, in the 1940s, Ivan Sutherland’s mother recycled his father’s civil engineering drawings by covering her sons’ schoolbooks with them ...
Ivan E. Sutherland received the 1988 ACM A.M. Turing Award for his pioneering contributions to the field of computer graphics: For his pioneering and visionary contributions to computer graphics, starting with Sketchpad, and continuing after. Sketchpad, though written twenty-five years ago, introduced many techniques [which are] still important ...
In 1963, Ivan Sutherland engineered a revolution in computer graphics with his highly-interactive program Sketchpad. It enabled users to design and draw in real time directly on the computer display, using a light pen. Among other innovative features, Sketchpad allowed users to manipulate, duplicate, store, and recall drawings for future use ...
Ivan Sutherland was born on 16 May 1938 in Hastings, Nebraska. He received a B.S. from Carnegie Institute ofTechnology in 1959, an M.S. from California Institute of Technology in 1960 and a Ph.D. from MIT in 1963, all in Electrical Engineering. Known to many as the "Father of Computer Graphics," principally for his early work developing an ...
Sketchpad, the first interactive computer-graphics program. Sketchpad originated as American engineer Ivan Sutherland ’s doctoral thesis project in the early 1960s and was one of the first graphical user interfaces. The program allowed users to visualize and control program functions and became a foundation for computer graphics, computer ...
