Fitted BVH for Fast Raytracing of Metaballs
Raytracing metaballs is a problem that has numerous applications in the rendering of dynamic soft objects such as fluids. However, current techniques are either limited in the visual effects that they can render or their performance drops as the number of metaballs and their density increase. We present a new acceleration structure based on BVH and kd-tree for efficient raytracing of a large nu...
متن کاملFast BVH Construction on GPUs
We present two novel parallel algorithms for rapidly constructing bounding volume hierarchies on manycore GPUs. The first uses a linear ordering derived from spatial Morton codes to build hierarchies extremely quickly and with high parallel scalability. The second is a top-down approach that uses the surface area heuristic (SAH) to build hierarchies optimized for fast ray tracing. Both algorith...
متن کاملTwo Optimization Methods for Raytracing Two Optimization Methods for Raytracing
Raytracing is a method to produce photo-realistic pictures. For each pixel of an image one ray is shot to nd the object, which determines the color of the pixel. Rays are also used to simulate shadows and reeections. Previously bounding volume hierarchies have been used to speed raytracing. A new method to speed the traversal of a bounding volume hierarchy is presented. Optimisation methods to ...
متن کاملAn Algorithm for Progressive Raytracing
Progressive generation of images is one of the important research areas of computer graphics. Especially, when the image generation takes too much time the users want to see the progress in the rendering process. The user may decide either to continue the rendering process or stop the rendering according to the current view of the image. This may be due to the fact that either the image is prod...
متن کاملGPU-based Fast Ray Casting for a Large Number of Metaballs
Metaballs are implicit surfaces widely used to model curved objects, represented by the isosurface of a density field defined by a set of points. Recently, the results of particle-based simulations have been often visualized using a large number of metaballs, however, such visualizations have high rendering costs. In this paper we propose a fast technique for rendering metaballs on the GPU. Ins...
