Antialiased Parameterized Solid Texturing Simplified for Consumer- Level Hardware Implementation
(The Eurographics Association, 1999)
Procedural solid texturing was introduced fourteen years ago, but has yet to find its way into consumer level graphics hardware for teal-time operation. To this end, a new model is introduced that yields a parameterized ...
Vertex-based Anisotropic Texturing
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
MIP mapping is a common method used by graphics hardware to avoid texture aliasing. In many situations, MIP mapping over-blurs in one direction to prevent aliasing in another. Anisotropic texturing reduces this blurring ...
Screen-Space Far-Field Ambient Obscurance
(ACM, 2013)
Ambient obscurance (AO) is an effective approximation of global illumination, and its screen-space (SSAO) versions that operate on depth buffers only are widely used in real-time applications. We present an SSAO method ...
Infinite Resolution Textures
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
We propose a new texture sampling approach that preserves crisp silhouette edges when magnifying during close-up viewing, and benefits from image pre-filtering when minifying for viewing at farther distances. During a ...
Perlin Noise Pixel Shaders
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
While working on a method for supporting real-time procedural solid texturing, we developed a general purpose multipass pixel shader to generate the Perlin noise function. We implemented this algorithm on SGI workstations ...
Compiling to a VLIW Fragment Pipeline
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
The latest generation of graphics hardware supports fully programmable vertex and pixel/fragment operations, but programming this hardware at a low level is difficult and time consuming. To address this problem, we have ...
VLSI Drawing Processor Utilizing Multiple ParallelScan-Line Processors
(The Eurographics Association, 1987)
In a typical graphics system, a single drawing processor is used to perform pixel level drawing operations, one pixel at a time. A VLSI based drawing processor and image memory controller is presented which takes advantage ...
High-Quality Volume Rendering Using Texture Mapping Hardware
(The Eurographics Association, 1998)
We present a method Jor volume rendering of regular grids which takes advantage of 3D texture mapping hardware currently, available on graphics workstations. Our method products accurate shading for arbitrary and dynamically ...
Fast Footprint MlPmapping
(The Eurographics Association, 1999)
Mapping textures onto surfaces of computer-generated objects is a technique which greatly improves the realism of their appearance. In this paper, we describe a new method for efficient and fast texture filtering to prevent ...
Gouraud Bump Mapping
(The Eurographics Association, 1998)
In this paper a new low cost bump mapping hardware is prcsented. The new hardware approach does not rely on per pixel lighting, but instead uses Gouraud interpolated triangles. The bump mapping effect is applied by blending ...
