* About OpenGL [#d7beaa1e]
>
OpenGL ES (OpenGL for Embedded Systems) is a 2D/3D graphics API for embedded systems, such as smart phones and hand-held-portable game devices. This is a subset of OpenGL, which is cross-platform and royalty-free. OpenGL ES is used in iOS, and Android, PS3, Nintendo 3D and so on.

-- http://www.khronos.org/opengles/
* Basic knowledge of OpenGL ES [#s7120182]
** Version [#o6e6b363]
>
There are roughly two different versions of OpenGL ES.
- OpenGL ES 1.x
-- Rendering is done by Fixed-Function Pipeline
[Fixed-Function Pipeline]
Vertex coordinates → Model-view transformation → Projective transformation → Viewport transformation → Rendering
>
- OpenGL ES 2.x
-- In stead of using “Fixed-Function Pipeline,” this employs Programmable Shaders. In Programable Shaders, programers can configure individually vertex coordinates, the information of transformation, and the method of pixel rendering for own needs.

Vertex coordinates → Programable Shaders → Rendering

This article discusses OpenGL ES 1.x Fixed-Function Pipeline.~
** Coordinates [#d514030a]
>
In OpenGL, x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis are considered as width height, and depth, respectively.

** State Machine [#p255e439]
>
OpenGL ES is a state machine, which executes the predetermined commands in the predetermined conditions and orders on a matrix. The latest command is always executed on the latest form of a matrix (not its original form).
** Matrix [#c3738f8a]
>
Open GL employs two different types of matrices. One is the projective transformation matrix, which is used for determining the direction to look at the model and the degree of viewing angle. The other one is the model transformation matrix, which handles to move, to rotate, to enlarge, and to reduce a model.
>>

&ref(3.PNG);~
** Vertex coordinates [#gc56d36d]
>
A point (X, Y, Z, W) is a set of coordinates. To define a point in 3-dimension, usually, it is written as (X, Y, Z, 1). However, a point in 3-dimension is defined as (X/W, Y/W, Z/W). if W is zero, this means a 3-dimensional vector.

** Model-view transformation [#j0ce9d95]
>
Model-view transformation configures parallel translation, rotation, and enlargement/reduction of a matrix with the model-view transformation matrix.
>
To use a set of translated vertex coordinates and a model translation matrix, you can calculate the model-view translation matrix by yourself. There are useful commands, and the use of these commands is highly recommended.
>
Parallel translation: glTranslatef()
Rotation: glRotatef()
Enlargement/Reduction: glScalef()

** Projective transformation [#w8699bb7]
>
To use the projective transformation matrix, Projective transformation sets up how the model can be seen. The direction of view point, degree of view angle, and ratio between width and hight of the screen.
** Viewport transformation [#j6525caa]
>
The ratio of screen, which displays the sean, is configured.

>>

“w” and “h” constitute the ratio of screen (Viewport)
“near” and “far” indicate distance between the view point and the near grip surface and far grip surface, respectively. A distance are measured between the view point and each a surface.
* Commands that removed from OpenGL [#f84d5d4b]
>
Since OpenGL ES is a subset of OpenGL, some functions of OpenGL are not ported to OpenGL ES. The list below shows the commands, which are removed as OpenGL is ported for embedded systems. If you need to execute an OpenGL program on OpenGL ES environment, you have to find and use the suitable replacements.
** Geometry related commands [#m6a76d2a]
>
- glBegin, glEnd: input vertex coordinates
- double (order form), glMultMatrixd, glTranslated
- Polygon is triangle only

* Using OpenGL ES on Android [#de0d79fb]

On Android, OpenGL ES can work with both Java and NDK (Android Native Development Toolkit). In this section explains how to use OpenGL ES on Java version of Android. The diagram below shows a basic configuration for applying OpenGL ES to an Android application.

Figure7: OpenGL ES on Android
** About Class [#yb9e1fdf]
>
As using OpenGL ES on Android, two classes are required One is “GLSurfaceView,” and the other is “GLSurfaceView.Renderer.” Briefly explain about these classes.
>
GLSurfaceView
- GLSurfaceView is a subclass of SurfaceView and is capable of processing OpenGL ES.
-- It puts specific threads, which are separated form UI threads.
-- It can handle continued rendering and on-demand rendering
-- It does trace and error checking as this is called
>
Method
-onTouchEvent()
--It is similar to View, it notes the handling of touch-screen operations.
> (i.e. By touch-screen operations, shift and/or rotate the model, or change (enlarge/reduce) the size of the model.)
>
GLSurfaceView.Renderer
- Render the frame
-- A class that inherits from this class is needed to to be created, the new class has to be registered as (setRenderer()) to GLSurfaceView.
>
Method
- onSurfaceCreated()
-- This method is called as a surface has been created.
-- As the state of a device is shifted from sleep to resume, in some case, its context may be lost. As the context disappears, the resources, which tag to the context also disappear. If this happens, the resources are needed to be recreated for continuing its rendering process. “OnSurfaceCreated() can be employed for recreating resources.
>
- onSurfaceChanged()
-- This method is called as the size of screen has been changed.
-- Usually, the configuration of Viewport can be done with this class.
>
- onDrawFrame()
-- “onDrawFrame()” method is called when the frame is about being rendered.
-- THe information, which is required for rendering, is need to be defined within this methoid.
** To adjust the state of Activity [#y06b5c46]
>
“onResume()” and “onPause()” of GLSurfaceView are can be called from “onResume()” and “onPause()” of Activity, respectively. These allow the sifts of OpenGL ES synchronizing the life cycle of Activity. As Activity is paused (by “onPause()” method),the rendering process of OpenGL ES is also paused. When Activity is resumed by (“onResume()” method), the suspended rendering process is also resumed.
** Debug Process [#uee0ae6d]
>
In GLSurfaceView Does have useful functions for debugging OpenGL ES.
GLSurfaceView Does have useful functions for debugging OpenGL ES. ~
The method of “GLSurfaceView.setDebugFlags(),” configures to call out the logs against OpenGL ES and to make its error check effective. Before calling up setRenderer() by the Constructor of GLSurfaceView, this method is needed to be called.~
The method of “GLSurfaceView.setDebugFlags()” //まだ訳してない
Before calling up setRenderer() by the Constructor of GLSurfaceView, this method is needed to be called.
>
setDebugFlags(DEBUG_CHECK_GL_ERROR|DEBUG_LOG_GL_CALLS)
>
GLSurfaceView.DEBUG_LOG_GL_CALLS:
GLSurfaceView.DEBUG_LOG_GL_CALLS:~
As the commands of OpenGL ES are executed , logs are output to its debugger(LogCat).
>
GLSurfaceView.DEBUG_CHECK_GL_ERROR:
GLSurfaceView.DEBUG_CHECK_GL_ERROR:~
Errors occur as the commands of OpenGL ES are executed, and this is reporting on Debugger (LogCat).

** To work with many different devices [#t4fadc9c]
>
Currently, Android supports many different types of devices. Some devices may support both OpenGL ES 1.1 and ES 2.0. The other devices handle only OpenGL ES 1.1. Even though two device are installed the same version of OpenGL, their hardware will make the difference. The hardware specifications limit the capability of OpenGL ES.
>
To utilize the functions of OpenGL ES fully, the specifications of targeted devices and the functions of OpenGL ES for such specifications are needed to be understood.
>
To examine which functions are supported, glGetString() is called with the following parameters.
>
GL_EXTENSIONS:
GL_RENDERER:
GL_VENDOR
GL_VERSION
