Preprint : Clip Art Rendering of Smooth Isosurfaces
Clip art is a simplified illustration form consisting of layered filled polygons or closed curves used to convey 3-D shape information in a 2-D vector graphics format. This paper focuses on the problem of direct conversion of smooth surfaces, ranging from the free-form shapes of art and design to the mathematical structures of geometry and topology, into a clip art form suitable for illustratio...
متن کاملHigh-Quality Rendering of Varying Isosurfaces with Cubic Trivariate C1-Continuous Splines
Smooth trivariate splines on uniform tetrahedral partitions are well suited for high-quality visualization of isosurfaces from scalar volumetric data. We propose a novel rendering approach based on spline patches with low total degree, for which ray-isosurface intersections are computed using efficient root finding algorithms. Smoothly varying surface normals are directly extracted from the und...
متن کاملIllustration of Smooth Isosurfaces
We present in this paper a new particle-based method for sampling and rendering several types of the nonphotorealistic feature contours on implicit surfaces: silhouette, shadow and suggestive contours. We introduce a curve adhesion behavior for dynamic particles that brings up the possibility to render any contour that is defined as an intersection of two smooth implicit surfaces. In the case o...
متن کاملGenerating Smooth High-Quality Isosurfaces for Interactive Modeling and Visualization of Complex Terrains
In modeling and rendering of complex procedural terrains the extraction of isosurfaces is an important part. In this paper we introduce an approach to generate high-quality isosurfaces from regular grids at interactive frame rates. The surface extraction is a variation of Dual Marching Cubes and designed as a set of well-balanced parallel computation kernels. In contrast to a straightforward pa...
متن کاملHardware Accelerated Point Rendering of Isosurfaces
Interactive volume sculpting and volume editing often employ surface based visualization techniques, and interactive applications require fast generation and rendering of surface primitives. In this paper, we revisit point primitives as an alternative to triangle primitives. We propose an approximate technique for point scaling using distance attenuation which makes it possible to render points...
