This paper describes the generation and rendering of three-dimensional (3D) surface cellular automata (CA). Our model’s main advantage is that it gives direct texturing simulation based on the actual shape of anytriangulated input object. We first introduc ...
In this paper, we present the technical details and the challenges we faced during the development and evaluation phases of our wearable indoor guiding system which consists of a virtual personal assistant guiding the user to his/her desired destination. T ...
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 ...
We present a novel algorithm for accurate, high quality point rendering, which is based on the formulation of splatting using homogeneous coordinates. In contrast to previous methods, this leads to perspective correct splat shapes, avoiding artifacts such ...
We address the task of rendering by ray tracing the isosurface of a high-quality continuous model of volumetric discrete and regular data. Based on first principles, we identify the quadratic B-spline as the best model for our purpose. The nonnegativity of ...
This paper presents a method for the real-time tracking and rendering of dendritic cells in a stream of microscopes images, as implemented in the software seeCell (TM) developed by Visualbiotech (Mange, 2008). The main guideline is how computer graphics te ...

This article describes a method for modeling the propagation of cracks on any 3D surface. This method allows almost any type of cracks on any type of triangulated 3D object. Our model’s main advantage is that it proposes a semi-physical solution, making it ...
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 a system for interactive shape and appearance editing of 3D point-sampled geometry. By generalizing conventional 2D pixel editors, our system supports a great variety of different interaction techniques to alter shape and appearance of 3D point ...
Advances in graphics hardware in recent years have led not only to a huge growth in the speed at which 3D data can be rendered, but also to a marked change in the way in which different data types can be displayed. In particular, point based rendering tech ...
