Multiresolution Triangle Strips

چکیده
Most of the previous multiresolution models use exclusively the triangle graphic primitive both in the data structure and in the rendering stage. Only a few models use another graphic primitive in this rendering process and just one uses the triangle fan as the basic primitive of the model. In this paper we present the first multiresolution model, Multiresolution Triangle Strips, that uses the triangle strip in the data structure and in the rendering stage. Each triangle strip is represented as a graph and all levels-of-detail of this strip are stored in it. The extraction algorithm traverses the graph to obtain the triangle strip at the demanded resolution. The use of this primitive speeds up the rendering process as the number of vertices sent to the graphic system is reduced.

Multiresolution Modelling Using Connectivity Information
Triangles meshes are the most popular standard model used to represent polygonal surfaces in Computer Graphics. Drawing these meshes as a set of independent triangles involves sending a vast amount of information to the graphic engine. The use of primitives such as triangle fans and strips, which make use of the connectivity information between the triangles in the mesh, dramatically reduces th...

DStrips is a simple and efficient method to dynamically manage and generate triangle strips for real-time viewdependent multiresolution meshing and rendering. Progressive view-dependent triangle mesh simplification and rendering is an important concept for interactive visualization environments. To minimize the rendering cost, triangle meshes are simplified to the maximal tolerated perceptual e...

Triangle meshes are the most popular standard model used to represent polygonal surfaces.

Recent advances in graphics hardware provide new possibilities to successfully integrate and improve multiresolution models. In this paper, we present a new continuous multiresolution model that maintains its geometry, based on triangle strips, in high-performance memory in the GPU. This model manages the level of detail by performing fast strip updating operations. We show how this approach ta...
