An illustration technique using hardware-based intersections and skeletons
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a method for generating line drawings of complex geometries in the style of crosshatched illustrations. Hatching lines are generated by intersecting the geometry with a set of planes. Half-toning on the basis of the generated curves is used to represent a given intensity distribution. Computing a geometric skeleton allows us to determine automatically the orientation of the intersection planes for a wide variety of models. By using predefined line styles different types of illustrations can be generated. Applications of the method are discussed, examples are given.

Towards a general framework for FPGA based image processing using hardware skeletons
In this paper, we present our approach to developing a general framework for FPGA based Image Processing. This framework is based on a library of Hardware Skeletons. A hardware skeleton is a parameterised description of a task-specific architecture. A skeleton’s implementation will apply optimisations specific to the target hardware. The library normally contains a range of alternative skeleton...
متن کاملPriority Order for Improvement of Intersections using Pedestrian Crash Prediction Model
One of the most important needs of pedestrians is safety at crossing points, especially at intersections. Intersections are important parts of the urban road network because any disruption in them reduces the capacity of the entire network. The main objective of this research is to propose an appropriate method for prioritizing urban intersections with considering the important factors affectin...
متن کاملMethods to Improve Fiber Reconstruction at DTI-Based Tractography in the Area of Brain Tumor: Case Illustration and Literature Review
Background and Aim: DTI-based tractography could help us to visualize the spatial relation of fiber tracts to brain lesions. Several factors may interfere with the procedure of diffusion-based tractography, especially in brain tumors. The aim of the current study is to discuss several solutions to improve the procedure of fiber reconstruction adjacent or inside brain lesions. Illustrative cases...
متن کاملShape blending using the star-skeleton representation
We present a novel approach to the problem of generating a polygon sequence that blends two simple polygons given a correspondence between their boundaries. Previous approaches to this problem, including direct vertex interpolation and an interpolation based on edge lengths and angles between edges, tend to produce self intersections and shape distortions. Our approach introduces the star-skele...
متن کاملFPGA Implementation of JPEG and JPEG2000-Based Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration on SOC for Remote Sensing Satellite On-Board Processing
This paper presents the design procedure and implementation results of a proposed hardware which performs different satellite Image compressions using FPGA Xilinx board. First, the method is described and then VHDL code is written and synthesized by ISE software of Xilinx Company. The results show that it is easy and useful to design, develop and implement the hardware image compressor using ne...
