OpenGL is a software interface for applications to generate interactive
2D and 3D computer graphics. OpenGL is a rendering only, vendor neutral API
providing 2D and 3D graphics functions, including modeling, transformations,
color, lighting, smooth shading, as well as advanced features like texture
mapping, NURBS, fog, alpha blending and motion blur. OpenGL is designed
to be independent of operating system, window system, and hardware operations,
and it is supported by many vendors.
