Abstract

This paper presents an indirect shader domain rendering techinque to combine different shader rendering effects to visualize the investigating data. Multiple shaders are associated with the geometries or voxels in volumetric data. The shader is resolved at run time to be selected for rendering. Our indirect shader synthesizer provides a novel method to control the appearance of the rendering over multi-shaders. We demonstrate an interactive shader painting technique using our indirect shader synthesizer to generate highly informative images from both geometric and volumetric datasets.
