In contrast to real-world scenarios, object representations in virtual environments have no notion of interpenetration. Therefore, algorithms for the detection of interfering object representations are an essential component ...

This tutorial presents recent and important research and developments from academia in illustrative, nonphotorealistic rendering (NPR) focusing on its use for medical/science subjects. Lectures are organized within a ...

The desire to augment our 3-dimensional perception and the need to understand multivariate problems spawned several multidimensional visualization methodologies. Understanding the underlying geometry of a multivariate ...

This full-day tutorial covers high-quality real-time volume rendering techniques for consumer graphics hardware. In addition to the traditional field of scientific visualization, the interest in applying these techniques ...

For virtual characters the simulation of garments is a vital component towards realistic and believable scenarios that range from interactive virtual reality (virtual tailoring and cultural heritage) to realistic synthetic ...

Real-time interaction with complex models has always challenged interactive computer graphics. Such models can easily contain gigabytes of data. This tutorial covers state-of- the-art techniques that remove current memory ...

In the last years triangle meshes have become increasingly popular and are nowadays intensively used in many different areas of computer graphics and geometry processing. In classical CAGD irregular triangle meshes developed ...
