    • Video Carving 

      Chen, Billy; Sen, Pradeep (The Eurographics Association, 2008)
      We present a technique for summarizing a video into a short segment, while preserving the important events in the original. While many techniques remove whole frames from the video stream when condensing it, we observe ...
    • Video Relighting Using Infrared Illumination 

      Wang, Oliver; Davis, James; Chuang, Erika; Rickard, Ian; De Mesa, Krystle; Dave, Chirag (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008)
      Inappropriate lighting is often responsible for poor quality video. In most offices and homes, lighting is not designed for video conferencing. This can result in unevenly lit faces, distracting shadows, and unnatural ...
    • Viewfinder Alignment 

      Adams, Andrew; Gelfand, Natasha; Pulli, Kari (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008)
      The viewfinder of a digital camera has traditionally been used for one purpose: to display to the user a preview of what is seen through the camera s lens. High quality cameras are now available on devices such as mobile ...
    • Virtual Hair Handle: A Model for Haptic Hairstyling 

      Bonanni, Ugo; Kmoch, Petr (The Eurographics Association, 2008)
      The process of styling virtual hair is a tedious task for 3D artists, who would significantly profit from more natural and intuitive ways of creating virtual hairstyles - such as, for example, the possibility to simply ...
    • Visualizing Underwater Ocean Optics 

      Gutierrez, Diego; Seron, Francisco J.; Munoz, Adolfo; Anson, Oscar (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008)
      Simulating the in-water ocean light field is a daunting task. Ocean waters are one of the richest participating media, where light interacts not only with water molecules, but with suspended particles and organic matter ...
    • Volume Data Visualization Using Fractal Interpolation Surfaces 

      Manousopoulos, Polychronis; Drakopoulos, Vassileios; Theoharis, Theoharis (The Eurographics Association, 2008)
      Visualization of medical or experimental data is often achieved by extracting an intermediate geometric representation of the data. One such popular method for extracting an isosurface from volume data is the Marching Cubes ...
    • What Can We Gain from Transdisciplinary Visualization Courses? 

      Chalmers, Panel Chair: Gitta Domik; Panellists: Alan; Domik, Gitta; Fellner, Dieter W.; Rushmeier, Holly (The Eurographics Association, 2008)
      Transdisciplinary education means going even further in the collaboration with other disciplines than multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary education do. Transdisciplinary education attempts to search for new insights ...
    • Zippy: A Framework for Computation and Visualization on a GPU Cluster 

      Fan, Zhe; Qiu, Feng; Kaufman, Arie E. (The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008)
      Due to its high performance/cost ratio, a GPU cluster is an attractive platform for large scale general-purpose computation and visualization applications. However, the programming model for high performance general-purpose ...
