We propose a simple, yet practical path guiding algorithm that runs on GPU. Path guiding renders photo-realistic images by simulating the iterative bounces of rays, which are sampled from the radiance distribution. The ...

Caricatures are an artistic representation of human faces to express satire and humor. Caricature generation of human faces is a hotspot in CG research. Previous work mainly focuses on 2D caricatures generation from face ...

We introduce a novel distributed rendering approach to generate high-quality graphics in thin-client games and VR applications. Many mobile devices have limited computational power to achieve ray tracing in real-time. ...

In this study, we present the first actual working system that can project content onto a tunnel wall from a moving subway train so that passengers can enjoy the display of digital content through a train window. To ...

Parametric CAD, in conjunction with 3D-printing, is democratizing design and production pipelines. End-users can easily change parameters of publicly available designs, and 3D-print the customized objects. In research and ...

The capture and creation of 3D content from a device equipped with just a single RGB camera has a wide range of applications ranging from 3D photographs and panoramas to 3D video. Many of these methods rely on depth ...

Neural rendering is a class of methods that use deep learning to produce novel images of scenes from more limited information than traditional rendering methods. This is useful for information scarce applications like mixed ...

Artistic style transfer synthesizes a stylized image with content from a target image and style from an art image. The latest neural style transfer leverages texture distributions as style information, and applies the style ...

In look development, environment maps (EMs) are used to verify 3D appearance in varied lighting (e.g., overcast, sunny, and indoor). Artists can only assign one fixed material, making it laborious to edit appearance uniquely ...

Light field is gaining both research and commercial interests since it has the potential to produce view-dependent and photorealistic effects for virtual and augmented reality. In this paper, we further explore the light ...
