Education and Training: Computer animation can be used to create interactive simulations, engaging learning materials, and virtual training environments. Scientific Visualization: Scientists use computer animation to visualize complex data, simulate physical phenomena, and create detailed models of biological structures.

The key/main concept behind computer animation is to play the defined images at a faster rate to fool the viewer so that the viewer should interpret those images as a continuous motion of images. Computer Animation is a sub-part or say small part of computer graphics and animation. Nowadays, animation can be seen in many area around us.

The more general term computer-generated imagery (CGI) encompasses both still images and moving images, while computer animation only refers to moving images. Modern computer animation usually uses 3D computer graphics. Computer animation is a digital successor to stop motion and traditional animation.

Computer-generated animation is an umbrella term for three-dimensional (3D) animation, and 2D computer animation. These also include subcategories like asset driven, hybrid, and digital drawn animation. Creators animate using code or software instead of pencil-to-paper drawings.
