A hierarchical shadow volume algorithm
The shadow volume algorithm is a popular technique for real-time shadow generation using graphics hardware. Its major disadvantage is that it is inherently fillrate-limited, as t...

Robust, geometry-independent shadow volumes
A novel algorithm is presented that overcomes limitations of existing shadow volume algorithms when dealing with nonmanifold geometry and space partitioning. This simple algorithm...

Split-plane shadow volumes
We present a novel method for rendering shadow volumes. The core idea of the method is to locally choose between Z-pass and Z-fail algorithms on a per-tile basis. The choice is ma...

Real-Time Shadow Volume Algorithm for Subdivision Surface Based Models
This paper presents a purely hardware-accelerated shadow volume algorithm for subdivision surface based models. By introducing SP (subdivision patterns), all procedures, including ...
