Rendering of 3D terrain data in real-time is difficult because of its large scale. So, it is necessary to use level-of-detail(LOD) that uses fewer data, but makes almost similar image to the original. We present an algorithm for real-time LOD generation and rendering of 3D terrain data. The algorithm applies wavelet transform to the terrain data, and then generates quadtree based view-dependent LOD using wavelet coefficients that are the output of wavelet transform. It also uses frame-to-frame coherence and view culling for high frame rates.

Computer simulation is one of the most useful techniques to predict daylighting performance and present visual image. In architectural and interior design practice, the Lightscape is commonly used often to produce persuasive images rather than physically accurate results. Therefore, this study is to validity the Lightscape as daylighting evaluation tool, in particularly performance and realistically visualization. For the purpose, an evaluation test model (12.0m$\times$7.2m$\times$3.0m) of side lighting window with lightshelf was selected. A 1:6 scale plywood physical model was made. Under clear sky condition, illuminance of 84 Interior point were measured. Lightscape was run on a 750 MHz Pentium PC running Windows 2000 under the same sky condition. And a photography image was compared to rendering image. The physical results of interior illuminance were within 8% between the scale model and Lightscape simulation. There were no differences between the photograph image and rendering image by Lightscape in the sight. Lightscape as visualization tool for daylighting performance was validated.

Image stacking technique is one of the key techniques for complex surface reconstruction. The process includes sample collection, image processing, algorithm editing, surface reconstruction, and finally reaching reliable conclusions. Since this experiment is based on laser scanning confocal microscope to collect the original contour information of the sample, it is necessary to briefly introduce the relevant principle and operation method of laser scanning confocal microscope. After that, the original image is collected and processed, and the data is expanded by interpolation method. Meanwhile, several methods of surface reconstruction are listed. After comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each method, one-dimensional interpolation and volume rendering are finally used to reconstruct the 3D model. The experimental results show that the final 3d surface modeling is more consistent with the appearance information of the original samples. At the same time, the algorithm is simple and easy to understand, strong operability, and can meet the requirements of surface reconstruction of different types of samples.

Haptic rendering is a process that provides force feedback during interactions between a user and an object. This paper presents a haptic rendering technique for a telemanipulation system of deformable objects using image processing and physically based modeling techniques. The interaction forces between an instrument driven by a haptic device and a deformable object are inferred in real time based on a continuum mechanics model of the object, which consists of a boundary element model and ${\alpha}$ priori knowledge of the object's mechanical properties. Macro- and micro-scale experimental systems, equipped with a telemanipulation system and a commercial haptic display, were developed and tested using silicone (macro-scale) and zebrafish embryos (micro-scale). The experimental results showed the effectiveness of the algorithm in different scales: two experimental systems applied the same algorithm provided haptic feedback regardless of the system scale.

Real-time 3D visualization of terrain data is one of the important issues in GIS(Geographic Information System) field. We present a real-time terrain rendering engine that can use several types of GIS data source such as DEM(Digital Elevation Map), DTED(Digital Terrain Elevation Data) and LIDAR(Light Detection And Ranging). Our rendering engine is a quadtree-based terrain rendering framework with several acceleration modules. This can generate an ocular and binocular image. Also it can be applied to the flight simulation, walk-through simulation and a variety of GIS applications.

This paper proposes a colored paper mosaic rendering technique based on image segmentation that can automatically generate torn and tagged colored paper mosaic effect. and 3D effect that come about in human-made mosaic work can be represented by generating shadow using difference of paper thickness. Previous method did not produce satisfactory results due to the ineffectiveness of having to use pieces of the same size. The proposed two methods for determination of paper shape and location that are based on segmentation can subdivide image area by considering characteristics of image. The first method is to generate Voronoi polygon after subdividing the segmented image again using quad tree. And the second method is to apply the Voronoi diagram on each segmentation layer. Through these methods, the characteristic of the image is expressed in more detail than previous colored paper mosaic rendering method and these methods enable to produce image that is closer to human-made mosaic work.

This Paper introduces representation and coding schemes of multiview texture and depth data for complex three-dimensional scenes. We represent input color and depth images using compressed texture and depth map pairs. The proposed X-codec encodes them further to increase compression ratio in a near-lossless way. Our system resolves two problems. First, rendering time and output visual quality depend on input image resolutions rather than scene complexity since a depth image-based rendering techniques is used. Second, the random access problem of conventional image-based rendering could be effectively solved using our image block-based compression schemes. From experimental results, the proposed approach is useful to graphics applications because it provides multiview rendering, selective decoding, and scene manipulation functionalities.

This paper presents an image-space algorithm to real-time collision detection, which is run completely by GPU. For a single object or for multiple objects with no collision, the front and back faces appear alternately along the view direction. However, such alternation is violated when objects collide. Based on these observations, the algorithm propose the depth peeling method which renders the minimal surface of objects, not whole surface, to find colliding. The Depth peeling method utilizes the state-of-the-art functionalities of GPU such as framebuffer object, vertexbuffer object, and occlusion query. Combining these functions, multi-pass rendering and context switch can be done with low overhead. Therefore proposed approach has less rendering times and rendering overhead than previous image-space collision detection. The algorithm can handle deformable objects and complex objects, and its precision is governed by the resolution of the render-target-texture. The experimental results show the feasibility of GPU-based collision detection and its performance gain in real-time applications such as 3D games.
