Tracking surfaces with evolving topology
We present a method for recovering a temporally coherent, deforming triangle mesh with arbitrarily changing topology from an incoherent sequence of static closed surfaces. We solv...

Direct Ray Tracing of Displacement Mapped Triangles
We present an algorithm for ray tracing displacement maps that requires no additional storage over the base model. Displacement maps are rarely used in ray tracing due to the cost...

Fitting Smooth Surfaces to Dense Polygon Meshes
Recent progress in acquiring shape from range data permits the acquisition of seamless million-polygon meshes from physical models. In this paper, we present an algorithm and syst...
