The fundamentals of producing graphic designs by a computer are reviewed. Examples of display techniques are discussed, in particular, printers, plotters and display scopes. A novel system of producing color-stereo displays, with which the operator may interact in real time, is considered in detail and examples of the displays are shown. The machine used was the PDP- 1 Computer of Harvard University. The basic program for producing the displays was developed by Dan Cohen as part of his graduate research work. Resume: Les principes fondamentaux de la production de dessins graphiques par un ordinateur sont etudies dans cet article. L’auteur decrit en particulier des exemples de techniques de representation d’images au moyen de machines imprimantes, de machines traceuses et d’ecrans equipes de tubes a rayon cathodique. Des details sont donnes sur un nouveau procede de production de couleur au moyen d’images stereoscopiques. Un operateur peut intervenir en temps reel dans ce procede. Un certain nombre d’exemples d’images obtenues suivant ce procede est etudie. La machine utilisee pour cela est l’Ordinateur PDP-I de l’Universite de Harvard. Le programme de base utilise pour produire les images a ete elabore par Dan Cohen au cours de ses travaux de recherche comme Maitre Assistant.
