ABSTRACT
This sketch presents a novel approach for rendering low resolution point clouds with multiple high resolution textures--the type of data commonly generated by real-time vision systems. The low precision, noisy, and sometimes incomplete nature of such data sets is not suitable for existing point-based rendering techniques that are designed to work with high precision and high density point clouds.Our new algorithm---View-dependent Textured Splatting (VDTS)---combines traditional splatting with a view-dependent texturing strategy to increase rendering quality of low resolution data sets with high resolution textures. VDTS requires no pre-processing, addresses texture visibility and anti-aliasing on the fly, and can be efficiently accelerated by commodity graphics hardware. Therefore it is well suited for real-time rendering of dynamic scenes online.

Splatting indirect illumination
I3D '06: Proceedings of the 2006 symposium on Interactive 3D graphics and gamesIn this paper we present a novel method for plausible real-time rendering of indirect illumination effects for diffuse and non-diffuse surfaces. The scene geometry causing indirect illumination is captured by an extended shadow map, as proposed in ...
View-Dependent Real-Time Rendering of Large Outdoor Scenes
CISP '08: Proceedings of the 2008 Congress on Image and Signal Processing, Vol. 2 - Volume 02A new real-time point-based rendering method of large outdoor scenes is presented. Based on our interactive subdivide method, polygonal trees and other vegetation were converted to point-based models, and then different level of details of trees and ...
Rendering synthetic objects into real scenes: bridging traditional and image-based graphics with global illumination and high dynamic range photography
SIGGRAPH '08: ACM SIGGRAPH 2008 classesWe present a method that uses measured scene radiance and global illumination in order to add new objects to light-based models with correct lighting. The method uses a high dynamic range image-based model of the scene, rather than synthetic light ...
