    • Interactive Display of Global Illumination Solutions for Non-diffuse Environments - A Survey 

      Heidrich, Wolfgang (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      In recent years there has been a lot of work on interactively displaying global illumination solutions for non-diffuse environments. This is an extremely active field of research, in which a lot of different approaches ...

    • Visual Perception in Realistic Image Synthesis 

      McNamara, Ann (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      Realism is often a primary goal in computer graphics imagery, and we strive to create images that are perceptually indistinguishable from an actual scene. Rendering systems can now closely approximate the physical distribution ...

    • Rendering Natural Waters 

      Premoze, Simon; Ashikhmin, Michael (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      Creating and rendering realistic water is one of the most daunting tasks in computer graphics. Realistic rendering of water requires that the sunlight and skylight illumination are correct, the water surface is modeled ...

    • Guided Exploration with Dynamic Potential Fields: the Cubical Path System 

      Beckhaus, Steffi; Ritter, Felix; Strothotte, Thomas (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      Exploring unknown models or scenes is a highly interactive and dynamic process. Systems for automatic presentation of models or scenes either require cinematographic rules, direct human interaction, framesets, or pre-calculation ...

    • Control of Feature-point-driven Facial Animation Using a Hypothetical Face 

      Su, Ming-Shing; Ko, Ming-Tat; Cheng, Kuo-Young (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      A new approach to the generation of a feature-point-driven facial animation is presented. In the proposed approach, a hypothetical face is used to control the animation of a face model. The hypothetical face is constructed ...

    • Rendering Silhouettes with Virtual Lights 

      Martin, Domingo; Torres, Juan Carlos (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      We present a new method for obtaining non-photorealistic images. These images have two main visual components: silhouettes and non-realistic colouring. Silhouettes are lines that define the form of an object. They are used ...

    • Haptic Device Control - Will it Fit Standardized Input Models? 

      Arnold, D. B.; Day, A. M.; Jennings, V.; Courtenay, A.; Duce, D. A. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      Over recent years a wide variety of interaction devices involving haptic feedback have been brought to the market, but they vary widely in terms of input measures recorded. These range from one dimensional input on a haptic ...

    • Visibility Driven Rasterization 

      Meissner, M.; Bartz, D.; Gunther, R.; Strasser, W. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      We present a new visibility driven rasterization scheme that significantly increases the rendering performance of modern graphic subsystems. Instead of rasterizing, texturing, lighting, and depth-testing each individual ...

    • CP3: Robust, Output-sensitive Display of Convex Polyhedra in Scanline Mode 

      Barkan, Ella; Gordon, Dan (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 2001)
      A new technique is developed for displaying disjoint convex polyhedra. The method has the following properties: It is output-sensitive, displays the objects in scanline mode, and it is naturally robust. There is no complex ...
