Ray tracing produces point samples of an image from a 3-D model. Constructing an antialiased digital picture from point samples is difficult without resorting to extremely high sa...
For pilots the importance of knowing their height (distance above the ground) cannot be minimized. An error in determining height can easily prove fatal. Commercial and military a...

Acquired data often provides the best knowledge of a material’s bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF). Its integration into most real-time rendering systems re...
While traditional graphics techniques provide for the realistic display of three-dimensional objects, these methods often lack the flexibility to emulate expressive effects found ...

The shear-warp volume rendering algorithm is one of the fastest algorithms for volume rendering, but it achieves this rendering speed only by sacrificing interpolation between th...
