Direct Volume Rendering: A 3D Plotting Technique for Scientific Data

Direct volume rendering is an efficient method for plotting three dimensional scientific data. However, the technique is not as frequently used as it could be. In this article, we summarize direct volume rendering and discuss the barriers that need to be overcome to take advantage of this powerful technique.
