We address the task of rendering by ray tracing the isosurface of a high-quality continuous spline model of volumetric discrete and regular data. By expressing the spline model as a sum of nonnegative B-splines, we are able to confine the potential locatio ...
This paper presents a new approach to rendering arbitrary views of real-world objects of complex shapes, captured by a capturing device. We propose to represent an object by a small set of corresponding 2-D views, and to construct any other view as a combi ...
Presents a new approach to rendering arbitrary views of real-world 3D objects of complex shapes. We propose to represent an object by a sparse set of corresponding 2D views, and to construct any other view as a combination of these reference views. We show ...
Rendering and animating in real-time a multitude of articulated characters presents a real challenge, and few hardware systems are up to the task. Up to now, little research has been conducted to tackle the issue of real-time rendering of numerous virtual ...
We present an image-based rendering technique to represent virtual humans in real-time. Though we deal only with virtual humans, the concept can be applied to any articulated character. Our technique is termed animated impostors because it extends the noti ...
A technique is described for adding natural-looking hair to standard rendering algorithms. Using an explicit hair model, in which each individual hair is represented by a three-dimensional curve, the technique uses pixel blending combined with Z-buffer and ...
