A Constraint-Based Technique for Haptic Volume Exploration
We present a haptic rendering technique that uses directional constraints to facilitate enhanced exploration modes for volumetric datasets. The algorithm restricts user motion in ...

Volume illustration: non-photorealistic rendering of volume models
Accurately and automatically conveying the structure of a volume model is a problem not fully solved by existing volume rendering approaches. Physics-based volume rendering approa...

Text Scaffolds for Effective Surface Labeling
In this paper we introduce a technique for applying textual labels to 3D surfaces. An effective labeling must balance the conflicting goals of conveying the shape of the surface wh...

Visualizing intersecting surfaces with nested-surface techniques
This paper describes the adaptation and evaluation of existing nestedsurface visualization techniques for the problem of displaying intersecting surfaces. For this work, we collab...

A quadrilateral rendering primitive
The only surface primitives that are supported by common graphics hardware are triangles and more complex shapes have to be triangulated before being sent to the rasterizer. Even ...
