基于Irrlicht引擎的实时浅水效果模拟

本文在Irrlicht引擎的基础上结合GLSL语言,对浅水的水面波动、反射与折射特性及菲涅尔现象进行了实时模拟。将基于Gestner波的水面波动与基于纹理波的动态法线贴图相结合,真实地模拟了水面的波动与波纹效果。同时,采用渲染到纹理技术实时生成反射贴图,准确地模拟了水面的反射效果,解决了采用环境贴图渲染时的反射失真问题。在不考虑水深的情况下,本文将菲涅尔权值与材质的alpha通道相结合,去掉了实时渲染中折射贴图的生成,在满足实时浅水效果渲染的视觉需求条件下,减小了CPU与GPU的计算量。     

机场视景模型参数化建模方法研究

随着计算机虚拟现实和视景仿真技术的发展与完善,用于提高视景的逼真度和视觉效果的技术在飞行模拟机视景仿真中已得到广泛的应用。但是,基于Multigen Creator等3D建模软件构建机场模型的缺点日益凸显:人工收集机场数据、手工绘制机场拓扑图的建模方法耗时、费力、效率低、缺乏灵活性和可复用性。针对这些问题,结合机场路网结构的特点,将参数化的思想引入到机场路网三维建模过程中,提出了一种基于交通拓扑约束的机场路网参数化三维建模方法,设计并实现了基于该方法的用于视景的机场路网模型参数化建模系统。该系统已成功应用到机场模型建模工作中,建模速度较之传统方法有了显著的提高,而且制作出来的模型可以复用,系统在稳定性、可扩展性和可移植性方面表现出色,并具有很强的真实感和沉浸感。

Processing and interactive editing of huge point clouds from 3D scanners

This paper describes a new out-of-core multi-resolution data structure for real-time visualization, interactive editing and externally efficient processing of large point clouds. We describe an editing system that makes use of the novel data structure to provide interactive editing and preprocessing tools for large scanner data sets. Using the new data structure, we provide a complete tool chain for 3D scanner data processing, from data preprocessing and filtering to manual touch-up and real-time visualization. In particular, we describe an out-of-core outlier removal and bilateral geometry filtering algorithm, a toolset for interactive selection, painting, transformation, and filtering of huge out-of-core point-cloud data sets and a real-time rendering algorithm, which all use the same data structure as storage backend. The interactive tools work in real-time for small model modifications. For large scale editing operations, we employ a two-resolution approach where editing is planned in real-time and executed in an externally efficient offline computation afterwards. We evaluate our implementation on example data sets of sizes up to 63 GB, demonstrating that the proposed technique can be used effectively in real-world applications.     

Interference Shaders of Thin Films

This paper presents a systematic study of light interferences at single thin films. Based on Fresnel's law, we have derived generic expressions of reflectance and transmittance for film interference, as well as specific expressions for free thin films and films coated on transparent or opaque objects. By combining film interference and volume absorption, we have obtained the reflectances and transmittances of film‐coated thin objects such as ribbons. Illumination models for all interference cases of single thin films are presented, and they have been implemented and tested for various structures and materials.     

The Visual Computing of Projector‐Camera Systems

This article focuses on real‐time image correction techniques that enable projector‐camera systems to display images onto screens that are not optimized for projections, such as geometrically complex, coloured and textured surfaces. It reviews hardware‐accelerated methods like pixel‐precise geometric warping, radiometric compensation, multi‐focal projection and the correction of general light modulation effects. Online and offline calibration as well as invisible coding methods are explained. Novel attempts in super‐resolution, high‐dynamic range and high‐speed projection are discussed. These techniques open a variety of new applications for projection displays. Some of them will also be presented in this report.     

GPU-based rendering for deformable translucent objects

In this paper we introduce an approximate image-space approach for real-time rendering of deformable translucent models by flattening the geometry and lighting information of objects into textures to calculate multi-scattering in texture spaces. We decompose the process into two stages, called the gathering and scattering corresponding to the computations for incident and exident irradiance respectively. We derive a simplified illumination model for the gathering of the incident irradiance, which is amenable for deformable models using two auxiliary textures. In the scattering stage, we adopt two modes for efficient accomplishment of the view-dependent scattering. Our approach is implemented by fully exploiting the capabilities of graphics processing units (GPUs). It achieves visually plausible results and real-time frame rates for deformable models on commodity desktop PCs.
