Modeling and Rendering Escher-Like Impossible Scenes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Inspired by the drawings of “impossible” objects by artists such as M.C. Escher, we describe a mathematical theory which captures some of the underlying principles of their work. Using this theory, we show how impossible three-dimensional scenes may be modeled and rendered synthetically.

Interactive 3D Simulation of Escher-like Impossible Worlds
Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898-1972) is a famous Dutch artist known – amongst others – for his prints of impossible figures and impossible worlds. Many of his works illustrate mathematical and geometrical concepts such as perspective and limits. Works by Escher have motivated scientists over the years to discover the mathematical foundations of his work, ultimately leading to applications that a...
متن کاملTake a Stroll in Another World
Another World II is a print by the famous Dutch artist M. C. Escher, depicting a cube with arch-like openings on each side. What makes the print interesting is that the depicted views in the arches are inconsistent, leaving the spectator puzzled as to the " impossible assembly " of views from different perspectives. In our work we invite the reader – and more so, the user of our software – to e...
متن کاملRendering multi-perspective images with trilinear projection
Non-linear projections of 3D graphical scenes can be used to compute reflections and refractions in curved surfaces, draw artistic images in the style of Escher or Picasso, and produce visualizations of complex data. Previously, most non-linear projections were rendered by ray tracing. This paper presents trilinear projection, a technique for rendering non-linear projections in a manner that ac...
متن کاملModeling (seemingly) impossible models
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in computer graphics and geometric modeling in the ability to create and manipulate Seemingly Impossible Models (SIMs). Methods to create derivative work and modify drawings and paintings of SIMs made by artists were suggested. Similarly, 3D realization of SIMs of some of these drawings were also offered. In this work, we further explore the na...
متن کاملTitle of Thesis: Rendering of Multi-resolution Graphics Models Captured from Images Rendering of Multi-resolution Graphics Models Captured from Images
In both computer graphics and computer vision, scenes and objects must be represented mathematically in some way. Representations tailored to ease scene acquisition in vision, may be inefficient to render. Likewise, models designed specifically for efficient rendering may be difficult, if not impossible, to capture from cameras. In this thesis, we explore potential graphical models which are bo...
