dc.description.abstract | MOVIE.BYU facilitates the display of three-dimensional mathematical, topological, and architectural models as line drawings or as continuous tone shaded images. This software provides the capability to clip and cap three dimensional systems: modify geometry, displacement, and/or scalar function files; generate new models or title representations; and convert contour line definitions into polygonal element mosaics. The 1981 edition features "bomb proof" free format input: enhanced clipping and capping of solids: routines for the description and display of functions of two variables: and new display options. A mini-computer version of the system, MINI-MOVIE.BYU, features a disk resident data base. A device driver for the Tektronix 4027 color graphics terminal is also available. | en_US |
