Strengthening Visual Skills by Recognising Rendering Algorithm
نویسنده
چکیده
Computer science students contemplating a career in graphics need to develop a visual sense, but traditional course topics do not meet this need. Visual analysis is a teaching technique developed for computer science instructors that helps impart this ability. Through the use of a few visual cues, students learn to visually identify surface algorithms, shaders and lighting techniques. An interactive software package called TERA (Tool for Exploring Rendering Algorithms) provides nearly a million image combinations that students can use to practice their visual identification skills.

Effectiveness of a Combined Training Package on Strengthening Visual Perceptual Skills in Preschool Children
Objectives: Paper and pencil exercises are extensively used to enhance children’s visual perceptual skills, while exercises involving volumetric shapes have been neglected. The present study aimed to develop a combined training package, including volumetric shapes and paper and pencil exercises, and to investigate its effectiveness in strengthening the visual perceptual skills of preschool chil...
متن کاملDeveloping a globally applicable evidence-informed competency framework to support capacity strengthening in clinical research
Capacity development for clinical research is held back by a lack of recognition for the skills acquired through involvement in clinical trials and in other varied types of global health research studies. Although some competency frameworks and associated recognised career pathways exist for different clinical research roles, they mostly apply to a single role or study setting. Our experience s...
متن کاملWYSIWYF Display: A Visual/Haptic Interface to Virtual Environment
To build a VR training system for visuomotor skills, an image displayed by a visual interface should be correctly registered to a haptic interface so that the visual sensation and the haptic sensation are both spatially and temporally consistent. In other words, it is desirable that what you see is what you feel (WYSIWYF). In this paper, we propose a method that can realize correct visual/hapti...
متن کاملSegmentation Assisted Object Distinction for Direct Volume Rendering
Ray Casting is a direct volume rendering technique for visualizing 3D arrays of sampled data. It has vital applications in medical and biological imaging. Nevertheless, it is inherently open to cluttered classification results. It suffers from overlapping transfer function values and lacks a sufficiently powerful voxel parsing mechanism for object distinction. In this work, we are proposing an ...
