Exploring Surface Characteristics with Interactive Gaussian Images (A Case Study)
The Gauss map projects surface normals to a unit sphere, providing a powerful visualization of the geometry of a graphical object. It can be used to predict visual events caused b...

Geometric Surface Smoothing via Anisotropic Diffusion of Normals
This paper introduces a method for smoothing complex, noisy surfaces, while preserving (and enhancing) sharp, geometric features. It has two main advantages over previous approach...

Interactive Motion Planning Using Hardware-Accelerated Computation of Generalized Voronoi Diagrams
We present techniques for fast motion planning by using discrete approximations of generalized Voronoi diagrams, computed with graphics hardware. Approaches based on this diagram ...

3-D Modeling from Range Imagery: An Incremental Method with a Planning Component
In this article we present a method for automatically constructing a solid (in the CAD sense) model of an unknown object from range images. The model acquisition system provides f...
