Pierre Bézier

Pierre Bézier was a French engineer and mathematician known for developing a method to create smooth, flexible curves used in computer graphics and automotive design. These curves, called Bézier curves, are defined by a set of specific points and can be easily manipulated to design complex shapes with precision. Widely used in graphic design, animation, and CAD software, Bézier’s work allows designers to craft intricate, flowing forms efficiently. His contributions revolutionized digital design and geometric modeling, making complex shape creation more intuitive and controllable.
