Non-invasive interactive visualization of dynamic architectural environments
We present a system for interactively producing exploded views of 3D architectural environments such as multi-story buildings. These exploded views allow viewers to simultaneously...

Direct manipulation of interactive character skins
Geometry deformations for interactive animated characters are most commonly achieved using a skeleton-driven deformation technique called linear blend skinning. To deform a vertex...

Incorporating dynamic real objects into immersive virtual environments
We present algorithms that enable virtual objects to interact with and respond to virtual representations, avatars, of real objects. These techniques allow dynamic real objects, s...

Budget sampling of parametric surface patches
We investigate choosing point samples on a model comprising parametric patches to meet a user specified budget. These samples may then be triangulated, rendered as points or ray-...
