A Modular Framework for Distributed VR Interaction Processing
(The Eurographics Association, 2009)
Interactions are a key part of Virtual Reality systems and can lead to complex software assembly for multi-modal and multi-site collaborative environments. This is even harder, when each participant is interacting in the ...
Using 3D Scanning to Analyze a Proposal for the Attribution of a Bronze Horse to Leonardo da Vinci
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
In this paper we present how technologies developed in the context of 3D graphics (3D scanning and image-to- 3D-model mapping) have been used to evaluate in a metrically objective way the plausibility of an attribution ...
Real-Time Occlusion Culling with a Lazy Occlusion Grid
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
We present a new conservative image-space occlusion culling method to increase the rendering speed of very large general scenes on today's available hardware without time-expensive preprocessing. The method is based on a ...
Compact, Fast and Robust Grids for Ray Tracing
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008)
The focus of research in acceleration structures for ray tracing recently shifted from render time to time to image, the sum of build time and render time, and also the memory footprint of acceleration structures now ...
Passive reconstruction of high quality textured 3D models of works of art
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)
A wide-spread use of 3D models in cultural heritage application requires low cost equipment and simple modeling procedures. In this context, passive 3D reconstruction methods allow to build 3D models from a set of calibrated ...
Contextual Visualization of Actor Status in Social Networks
(The Eurographics Association, 2000)
We propose a novel information visualization approach for an analytical method applied in the social sciences. In social network analysis, social structures are formally represented as graphs, and structural properties of ...
On the Origins of the Term Computational Aesthetics
(The Eurographics Association, 2005)
To provide some background, as well as a historical context, for the Eurographics 2005 Workshop on Graphics, Visualization and Imaging we provide a chronology, complete with references, covering various research activities ...
Symmetric Photography: Exploiting Data-sparseness in Reflectance Fields
(The Eurographics Association, 2006)
We present a novel technique called symmetric photography to capture real world reflectance fields. The technique models the 8D reflectance field as a transport matrix between the 4D incident light field and the 4D exitant ...
ArcheoTUI - A Tangible User Interface for the Virtual Reassembly of Fractured Archeological Objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
Cultural objects of archeological findings are often broken and fractured into a large amount of fragments, and the archeologists are confronted by 3D puzzles when reassembling the fractured objects. Scanning the fragments ...
Hierarchical Data Representations Based on Planar Voronoi Diagrams
(The Eurographics Association, 2000)
Multiresolution representation of high-dimensional scattered data is a fundamental problem in scientific visualization. This paper introduces a data hierarchy of Voronoi diagrams as a versatile solution. Given an arbitrary ...
