چکیده

The applications for forest trees in computer graphics are varied, e.g.: children’s movies (e.g. Barnard, 2000), influencing opinion on extractive forestry (e.g. Bishop et al. 2003), harvesting machine simulators (CMLabs, circa 2003), immersive virtual reality (Gigliotti, 2002), games (e.g. Szijártó & Koloszár, 2003), and ecological studies (e.g. Dzierzon et al. 2003). The present work was founded on botanical models initiated as part of an ecological study and has potential for any of the above applications.
