Influencing User Attention Using Real-Time Stylised Rendering

چکیده
In this paper, we present a series of experiments that were conducted to further understand how using adaptive levels of artistic abstraction within an interactive 3D scene can influence user gaze behaviour. We found that when an object was placed in the center of stylised focus, users took significantly less time to complete a search and recognition task in comparison to normal renderings or when the target object was heavily abstracted i.e. stylistically out-of-focus. We also compared a number of different abstraction techniques and found that some abstraction styles consistently lead to faster search times than others. Finally we performed experiments usingion styles consistently lead to faster search times than others. Finally we performed experiments using an eye-tracker to show that our real-time abstraction techniques can successfully draw user attention to specific objects within an interactive scene. We believe that our experimental framework will be useful in the future for comparing the effectiveness of different NPR styles in influencing a user’s perception of a scene.

A Framework for User Control on Stylised Animation of Gaseous Phenomena
We present a novel approach to create stylised animations of gaseous phenomena. Existing computer-assisted systems employ computational physics-based approaches which generate 3D effects. Unfortunately, these effects usually don’t look like traditional animation, nor can the user freely design the behaviour of the animation. Our approach combines benefits from existing 2D and 3D approaches inte...
متن کاملA Hybrid Approach to Real-Time Abstraction
To faithfully represent a scene through non-photorealistic rendering (NPR), it is vital that all available scene data be taken into account. We present an automatic hybrid framework for creating abstractions of 3D scenes in real-time. Our approach uses a combination of object-space and image-space information to produce stylistic and reliable results. Calculations using scene vertex data are co...

General Presentation of the Research Domain The focus of the REVES research group is on image and sound synthesis for virtual environments. Our research is on the development of new algorithms to treat complex scenes in real time, both for image rendering (for example the capture and rendering of trees using an image-based technique [1]) or for sound (for example using perceptual masking and cl...
متن کاملAutomatic non-photorealistic rendering through soft-shading removal: a colour-vision approach
This paper presents a non-photorealistic rendering algorithm that produces "stylised-style" images by removing the soft shading from the image and by giving objects extra definition through black outlines. The method of shading removal is based on a model of the architecture of the human colour vision system. Some image results are provided and the possible extension of the algorithm using a ba...
