The VolumePro Real-Time Ray-Casting System
This paper describes VolumePro, the world’s first single-chip realtime volume rendering system for consumer PCs. VolumePro implements ray-casting with parallel slice-by-slice p...

A Real-Time Low-Latency Hardware Light-Field Renderer
This paper describes the design and implementation of an architecture for interactively viewing static light fields with very low latency. The system was deliberately over enginee...

A Perceptually Based Physical Error Metric for Realistic Image Synthesis
We introduce a new concept for accelerating realistic image synthesis algorithms. At the core of this procedure is a novel physical error metric that correctly predicts the percep...

Creating Generative Models from Range Images
We describe a new approach for creating concise high-level generative models from range images or other approximate representations of real objects. Using data from a variety of a...

View-dependent Geometry
When constructing 3D geometry for use in cel animation, the reference drawings of the object or character often contain various view-specific distortions, which cannot be captured...

Multi-color and Artistic Dithering
A multi-color dithering algorithm is proposed, which converts a barycentric combination of color intensities into a multi-color nonoverlapping surface coverage. Multi-color dither...

Graphical Modeling and Animation of Brittle Fracture
In this paper, we augment existing techniques for simulating flexible objects to include models for crack initiation and propagation in three-dimensional volumes. By analyzing th...

Six Degree-of-Freedom Haptic Rendering Using Voxel Sampling
A simple, fast, and approximate voxel-based approach to 6DOF haptic rendering is presented. It can reliably sustain a 1000 Hz haptic refresh rate without resorting to asynchronous...

Skin: A Constructive Approach to Modeling Free-Form Shapes
We present a new particle-based surface representation with which a user can interactively sculpt free-form surfaces. The particles maintain mesh connectivity and operate under ru...
