coordinate graphics; line graphics
Computing term for graphics defined by geometric primitives (lines, curves) rather than pixels. Used in contexts like vector graphics, CAD, and early display systems.
Coordinate graphics is a fundamental technology for vector graphics.
This CAD software creates precise drawings using line graphics.
A broader term for vector-based image representation, while 線図形処理 specifically refers to the processing or handling of such line-based graphics.
Raster graphics represent images as a grid of pixels, contrasting with the line/coordinate approach of 線図形処理.
Compound of 線 (line), 図形 (figure, shape), and 処理 (processing). A straightforward technical term with no known historical peculiarities.
