Enhanced Sphere Tracing
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
In this paper we present several performance and quality enhancements to classical sphere tracing: First, we propose a safe, over-relaxation-based method for accelerating sphere tracing. Second, a method for dynamically ...
Faster Ray-Traced Shadows for Hybrid Rendering of Fully Dynamic Scenes by Pre-BVH Culling
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)
With ever increasing ray traversal and hierarchy construction performance the application of ray tracing to problems often tackled by rasterization-based algorithms is becoming a viable alternative. This is especially ...
Level-of-Detail for Production-Scale Path Tracing
(The Eurographics Association, 2015)
Path-traced global illumination (GI) becomes increasingly important in movie production. With offscreen elements considerably contributing to the path traced image, geometric complexity increases drastically, requiring ...
Meshless Hierarchical Radiosity on the GPU
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
Meshless radiosity is a radiosity method that is based on a point-based hierarchical discretization of the scene. This better decouples the runtime complexity from the geometric complexity of the scene and allows for an ...
Interactive Direct Volume Rendering with Many-light Methods and Transmittance Caching
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
In this paper we present an interactive global illumination method for Direct Volume Rendering (DVR) based on the many-light approach, a class of global illumination methods which gained much interest recently. We extend ...
Fast Shadow Map Rendering for Many-Lights Settings
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
In this paper we present a method to efficiently cull large parts of a scene prior to shadow map computations for many-lights settings. Our method is agnostic to how the light sources are generated and thus works with any ...
AFiT - Atrial Fibrillation Ablation Planning Tool
(The Eurographics Association, 2011)
The planning of cryo-balloon ablations for treatment of atrial fibrillation is a crucial task for a physician as he has to determine which size of the balloon catheter is required for isolation at each pulmonary vein. ...
Real-Time Deformation of Subdivision Surfaces from Object Collisions
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We present a novel real-time approach for fine-scale surface deformations resulting from collisions. Deformations are represented by a high-resolution displacement function. When two objects collide, these offsets are ...
Real-time Local Displacement using Dynamic GPU Memory Management
(ACM, 2013)
We propose a novel method for local displacement events in large scenes, such as scratches, footsteps, or sculpting operations. Deformations are stored as displacements for vertices generated by hardware tessellation. ...
