Normal mapping for precomputed radiance transfer
Normal mapping is a variant of bump mapping that is commonly used in computer games. It models complex surface variations by explicitly storing a surface normal in a texture map. ...

Direct Haptic Rendering of Sculptured Models
A new tracing algorithm is described that supports haptic rendering of NURBS surfaces without the use of any intermediate representation. By using this tracing algorithm in conjun...

A Cellular Texture Basis Function
Solid texturing is a powerful way to add detail to the surface of rendered objects. Perlin's "noise" is a 3D basis function used in some of the most dramatic and us...

Surface Visibility Probabilities in 3D Cluttered Scenes
Many methods for 3D reconstruction in computer vision rely on probability models, for example, Bayesian reasoning. Here we introduce a probability model of surface visibilities in ...

Surface Reconstruction Via Contour Metamorphosis: An Eulerian Approach With Lagrangian Particle Tracking
We present a robust method for 3D reconstruction of closed surfaces from sparsely sampled parallel contours. A solution to this problem is especially important for medical segment...
