Ray-Tracing Triangular Trimmed Free-Form Surfaces
This paper presents a new approach to rendering triangular algebraic free form surfaces. A hierarchical subdivision of the surface with associated tight bounding volumes provides ...

Interactive ray tracing of free-form surfaces
Even though the speed of software ray tracing has recently been increased to interactive performance even on standard PCs, these systems usually only supported triangles as geomet...

Building World Models by Ray-Tracing within Ceiling-Mounted Positioning Systems
Context-aware computing in location-aware environments demands the combination of real world position with a computational world model to infer context. We present a novel approach...

Measuring properties of molecular surfaces using ray casting
Molecular geometric properties, such as volume, exposed surface area, and occurrence of internal cavities, are important inputs to many applications in molecular modeling. In this ...

Interactive Rendering of Globally Illuminated Glossy Scenes
Global illumination simulates all transfers of light in a scene. The results of the simulation are then used to generate photo-realistic images. Scenes with diffuse surfaces only c...
