The magazine features shorter and less technical content than would appear in an [[academic journal]] and is meant for both experts and non-experts and often tutorial in nature.<ref>{{Cite web |title=About IEEE Magazines |url=https://magazines.ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/get-started-with-ieee-magazines/about-ieee-magazines/ |access-date=2023-10-17 |website=IEEE Author Center Magazines}}</ref> It connects the theory of computer graphics to its practice,<ref name=salomon>{{cite book |first=David |last=Salomon |title=The Computer Graphics Manual |date=18 September 2011 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DX4YstV76c4C&pg=PA21 |pages= 21–22 |publisher=[[Springer Science+Business Media]] |isbn=9780857298867}}</ref> providing coverage on topics including modeling, [[Rendering (computer graphics)|rendering]], [[animation]], (data) [[Visualization (graphics)|visualization]], [[Human–computer interaction|HCI/user interfaces]], novel applications, [[hardware architecture]]s, [[Haptic technology|haptics]], [[Virtual reality|virtual and augmented reality]] systems, and [[medical imaging]].<ref>{{cite book |title=Lesko's New Tech Sourcebook: A Directory to Finding Answers in Today's Technology-oriented World |first=Matthew |last=Lesko |publisher=[[Harper & Row]] |year=1986 |isbn=9780061815096 |page=140}}</ref><ref name=ruller>{{cite journal |last=Ruller |first=Thomas |date=July 1993 |doi=10.17723/aarc.56.3.yq85664055727271 |doi-access=free |issue=3 |journal=[[The American Archivist]] |pages=546–559 |title=A review of information science and computer science literature to support archival work with electronic records |volume=56}} See paragraph about this journal on p. 554.</ref>

One of its publishing innovations was the first animated [[hologram]] to appear on a magazine cover. The hologram, on its July 1988 cover, featured the baby from the 1988 [[Pixar]] short film ''[[Tin Toy]]'', opening and closing its mouth.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.digicamhistory.com/1988.html |title=1988 |work=Digicam History |access-date=2023-10-26}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |magazine=Holosphere |title="The Tin Toy Baby" becomes a hologram |volume=16–17 |pages=21–22 |publisher=Museum of Holography |year=1989 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=kuZRAAAAMAAJ}}</ref>
