ABSTRACT
'SplashDisplay' is a system developed to attempt real time volumetric display. This system implements air pressure generated by an x-y coordinate based projectile launching speaker through a bed of projectile beads to simulate a real-time 3D "explosion" like effect. The projectile beads act as a projection medium for a top-mounted visible light projector; and through synchronized timing of these components, it is possible to create 3D, tangible effects at will. Also, by using IR LED and IR sensitive cameras, user interaction can be added to this system to allow for an interactive surface. The result of these components is a dynamic, interactive, real-time "explosion" simulation game that can be used to confirm the innovative construct of this suggested system.

SplashDisplay: volumetric projection using projectile beads
SIGGRAPH '12: ACM SIGGRAPH 2012 Emerging TechnologiesThe prime feature of the SplashDisplay is that it uses projectile beads as a display medium that are launched from the table; this means that the tangible medium can be removed from the surface and allowed free movement in air. In current research [1] [...
Interactive Approximate Rendering of Reflections, Refractions, and Caustics
Reflections, refractions, and caustics are very important for rendering global illumination images. Although many methods can be applied to generate these effects, the rendering performance is not satisfactory for interactive applications. In this paper,...
