Improvement of the Virtual Printing Scheme for Synthesizing Ukiyo-e

چکیده
In this paper, we propose a physically based model for the printing process in the virtual woodblock printing for improvement of printing quality. Virtual printing is a simulation of real printing using “woodblocks”, “a paper sheet”, “a BAREN (Japanese squeegee)”, and “inks” in a virtual 3D space. A print is synthesized by an interaction among them, and it is very important to study physical properties and behaviors of the virtual items. We focus on the property and the behavior of ink and study a variety of effects due to the degree of moisture of the ink. This improvement enables the virtual printing to synthesize Japanese traditional multicolor prints Ukiyo-e.

Reverce Engeneering of Wood-block Printing
Ukiyo-e is a multi-woodblock color print and an important historical and cultural heritage from the Edo period in Japan. An Ukiyo-e print is produced with three processes: drawing by an E-shi, a painter or a designer; woodblocks engraving by a Hori-shi, an engraving technician; and printing by a Suri-shi, a printing technician. The produced prints from the same woodblocks are not exactly the sa...

We present an interactive CG (Computer Graphics) design system based on virtual woodblock printing, with the stress on an aspect of a tool to enjoy creation in a virtual space. This system is a simulation of real woodblock printing: generating a woodblock, spreading inks on the woodblock, putting a paper sheet on the woodblock, and rubbing the paper sheet with a Japanese squeegee “BAREN” in a v...

In this paper, we present an interactive CG creating system with a pressure sensitive pen and a tablet. This system is based on the virtual sculpting and printing method which are simulations of the real sculpting and woodblock printing. In the virtual sculpting process, the user operates virtual chisels with the pen to sculpt a virtual wooden object which has a 3D shape. The user can control t...

Rakkan is a Japanese word for the signature and/or seal of the artist for a completed painting. In this paper, we present a binarization scheme for ukiyo-e Rakkan extraction. The Rakkan characters are extracted based on both lightness and color information in L∗a∗b∗ color space using k-means clustering. Different thresholding and noise removal methods are applied to different types of Rakkan im...
