Lecture 7: Bezier Curves & Surfaces (59)
JunoLee128

I've seen this before in MSPaint/other programs/etc., and it's what I first thought of when I heard "Bezier". It was never intuitive what exactly this third point did though. It's nice to know that this algorithm is being applied when I make curves in paint/google docs.

@JunoLee128 Yup! I've also seen bezier curves in Maya, a computer graphics application to make 3-D animation! Specifically, it's used to simulate movement, and we can use these bezier curves to smoothly move our objects around in a way that seems human-like.
