Accessibility Analysis Using Computer Graphics Hardware
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analyzing the accessibility of an object's surface to probes or tools is important for many planning and programming tasks that involve spatial reasoning and arise in robotics and automation. This paper presents novel and eecient algorithms for computing accessible directions for tactile probes used in 3-D digitization with Coordinate Measuring Machines. The algorithms are executed in standard computer graphics hardware. They are a non-obvious application of rendering hardware to scientiic and technological areas beyond computer graphics.

Although Sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SPMVs) algorithms are simple, they include important parts of Linear Algebra algorithms in Mathematics and Physics areas. As these algorithms can be run in parallel, Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) has been considered as one of the best candidates to run these algorithms. In the recent years, power consumption has been considered as one of the metr...
