      Fratarcangeli, Marco; Pellacini, Fabio (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We introduce a practical partitioning technique designed for parallelizing Position Based Dynamics, and exploiting the ubiquitous multi-core processors present in current commodity GPUs. The input is a set of particles ...
    • Eye-tracktive: Measuring Attention to Body Parts when Judging Human Motions 

      Ennis, Cathy; Hoyet, Ludovic; O'Sullivan, Carol (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Virtual humans are often endowed with human-like characteristics to make them more appealing and engaging. Motion capture is a reliable way to represent natural motion on such characters, thereby allowing a wide range of ...
    • High Reliefs from 3D Scenes 

      Arpa, Sami; Süsstrunk, Sabine; Hersch, Roger D. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We present a method for synthesizing high reliefs, a sculpting technique that attaches 3D objects onto a 2D surface within a limited depth range. The main challenges are the preservation of distinct scene parts by preserving ...
    • 3D Video: from Capture to Interactive Display 

      Loscos, Céline; Rémion, Yannick; Lucas, Laurent; Guillemot, Romain; Battin, Benjamin (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      While 3D vision and 3D/4D imaging has existed for many years, the use of 3D cameras and video-based modeling by the film industry and recent access to cheap contactless control devices has induced an explosion of interest ...
    • Hardware-Based Non-Photorealistic Rendering Using a Painting Robot 

      Lindemeier, Thomas; Metzner, Jens; Pollak, Lena; Deussen, Oliver (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      We describe a painting machine and associated algorithms. Our modified industrial robot works with visual feedback and applies acrylic paint from a repository to a canvas until the created painting resembles a given input ...
    • Biologically-Inspired Visual Simulation of Insect Swarms 

      Li, Weizi; Wolinski, David; Pettré, Julien; Lin, Ming C. (The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
      Representing the majority of living animals, insects are the most ubiquitous biological organisms on Earth. Being able to simulate insect swarms could enhance visual realism of various graphical applications. However, the ...
    • Adaptive LightSlice for Virtual Ray Lights 

      Frederickx, Roald; Bartels, Pieterjan; Dutré, Philip (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We speed up the rendering of participating media with Virtual Ray Lights (VRLs) by clustering them in a preprocessing step. A subset of representative VRLs is then sampled from the clustering, which is used for the final ...
    • Adapting the Twelve Principles of Classic Animation to Lectures 

      Gilardi, Marco; Holroyd, Patrick; Newbury, Paul; Watten, Phil L. (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      This paper borrows from the fields of classic animation and 3D animation and adapts the fundamental principles of these subjects to the lecturing context. An analogy is drawn between an animator and a lecturer due to their ...
