Fast Scalable k-NN Computation for Very Large Point Clouds
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
The process of reconstructing virtual representations of large real-world sites is traditionally carried out through the use of laser scanning technology. Recent advances in these technologies led to improvements in precision ...
Path Tracing on Massively Parallel Neuromorphic Hardware
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
Ray tracing on parallel hardware has recently benefit from significant advances in the graphics hardware and associated software tools. Despite this, the SIMD nature of graphics card architectures is only able to perform ...
Light Clustering for Dynamic Image Based Lighting
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
High Dynamic Range (HDR) imagery has made it possible to relight virtual objects accurately with the captured lighting. This technique, called Image Based Lighting (IBL), is a commonly used to render scenes using real-world ...
Computing Curve Skeletons from Medial Surfaces of 3D Shapes
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
Skeletons are powerful shape descriptors with many applications in shape processing, reconstruction and matching. In this paper we show that in 3D, curve skeletons can be extracted from surface skeletons in the same manner ...
Simplified User Interface for Architectural Reconstruction
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
We present a user-driven reconstruction system for the creation of 3D models of buildings from photographs. The structural properties of buildings, such as parallel and repeated elements, are used to allow the user to ...
A GPU Based Method for the Automatic Generation of Near-Optimal Navigation Meshes
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
In this paper we present a novel, robust and efficient GPU based technique to automatically generate a Navigation Mesh for complex 3D scenes. Our method consists of two steps: firstly, starting with a 3D scene representing ...
Kinamo: Gait Analysis System
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
The gait analysis is a fundamental technique for functional assessment of patients with gait problems. This analysis is generally available to few patients because the systems needed to carry it out have a high cost. In ...
A Survey on Development Tools for Mobile Augmented Reality
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
Augmented Reality (AR) applications have become more popular beyond the research laboratory due to recent technological breakthroughs in computer hardware and mobile devices. Users are starting to interact with virtual ...
Modular Design of Graph Theory Based Software for Scientific Applications and Education
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
This work describes a new software design approach in graph theory applications. Sometimes, while using or teaching applications related to this subject, one of the main drawbacks is to define the application-specific graph ...
Bringing Direct Local Control to Interactive Visual Editing of Procedural Buildings
(The Eurographics Association, 2012)
This paper presents a new system to add direct and persistent local control to the visual editing of rules for procedural buildings, avoiding a combinatorial explosion of grammar rules. In this paper we follow the ideas ...
