Fully procedural graphics
The growing application of user-defined programs within graphics processing units (GPUs) has transformed the fixed-function display pipeline into a largely programmable pipeline...

Teaching robots by moulding behavior and scaffolding the environment
Programming robots to carry out useful tasks is both a complex and non-trivial exercise. A simple and intuitive method to allow humans to train and shape robot behaviour is clearl...

Visibility Sorting and Compositing Without Splitting for Image Layer Decompositions
We present an efficient algorithm for visibility sorting a set of moving geometric objects into a sequence of image layers which are composited to produce the final image. Inste...

OpenVIDIA: parallel GPU computer vision
Graphics and vision are approximate inverses of each other: ordinarily Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are used to convert “numbers into pictures” (i.e. computer graphics). I...

Real-Time Consensus-Based Scene Reconstruction Using Commodity Graphics Hardware
We present a novel use of commodity graphics hardware that effectively combines a plane-sweeping algorithm with view synthesis for real-time, on-line 3D scene acquisition and view...
