  2. 6. Towards a High Quality Real-Time Graphics Pipeline

    Author : Jacob Munkberg; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Graphics Hardware; Computer Graphics; Rasterization; Texture Compression; Culling;

    Abstract : Modern graphics hardware pipelines create photorealistic images with high geometric complexity in real time. The quality is constantly improving and advanced techniques from feature film visual effects, such as high dynamic range images and support for higher-order surface primitives, have recently been adopted.

  4. 7. A Poetics of Virtuality

    Author : Thommy Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; computer games; movie making; augmented reality; virtuality; computer graphics; Stephen Baxter; William Gibson; virtual worlds; science fiction; production culture; virtual reality;

    Abstract : How is virtuality represented in fiction, and what does that say about our anticipations and fears about what the virtual is and will be? This text, a poetics of virtuality, explores fictional representations of virtuality, primarily in movies and literature, but also in media productions done by the author. The aim is to study the dream of virtuality. READ MORE

  5. 8. Perspective Correct Hand-held Augmented Reality for Improved Graphics and Interaction

    Author : Ali Samini; Karljohan Lundin Palmerius; Lucio Tommaso De Paolis; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : With Augmented Reality, also termed AR, a view of the real world is augmented by superimposing computer-generated graphics, thereby enriching or enhancing the perception of the reality. Today, lots of applications benefit from AR in different areas, such as education, medicine, navigation, construction, gaming, and multiple other areas, using primarily head-mounted AR displays and AR on hand-held smart devices.

  6. 9. A Real-Time Soft Shadow Volume Algorithm

    Author : Ulf Assarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; three-dimensional graphics and realism; shading; pixel shaders; graphics hardware; shadowing; soft shadows; computer graphics;

    Abstract : Rendering of shadows is a very important ingredient in three-dimensional graphics since they increase the level of realism and provide cues to spatial relationships. Area or volumetric light sources give rise to so called soft shadows, i.e., there is a smooth transition from no shadow to full shadow. READ MORE

  7. 10. Approximation and Compression Techniques to Enhance Performance of Graphics Processing Units

    Author : Alexandra Angerd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Compression; Approximate Computing; Register File; Machine Learning; Floating-Point Precision; Microarchitecture; GPU;

    Abstract : A key challenge in modern computing systems is to access data fast enough to fully utilize the computing elements in the chip. In Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), the performance is often constrained by register file size, memory bandwidth, and the capacity of the main memory. READ MORE
