In this paper, we used the color transfer function and the opacity transfer function for the internal 3D object visualization of an image volume data. In transfer function, creating values of between boundaries generally is ambiguous. We concentrated to extract boundary features for segmenting the visual volume rendering objects. Consequently we extracted an image gradient feature in spatial domain and created a multi-dimensional transfer function according to the GPU efficient improvement. Finally using these functions we obtained a good research result as an implementing object boundary visualization of the graphic hardware based 3D texture mapping.
