Perceptually-Based Depth-Ordering Enhancement for Direct Volume Rendering
2013
IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics
Existing methods use visual cues such as halos and shadows to enhance depth perception. Along with other limitations, these methods introduce redundant information and require additional overhead. ...
This paper presents a new approach to enhancing depth-ordering perception of volume rendered images without using additional visual cues. ...
Bruckner and Gröller [6] introduced an approach that enables users to generate halos interactively for volume data using the halo transfer function. Everts et al. ...

Strategies for interactive exploration of 3D flow using evenly-spaced illuminated streamlines
2003
Proceedings of the 18th spring conference on Computer graphics - SCCG '03
To improve spatial perception of the 3D flow we apply techniques based on animation, depth cueing, and halos along a streamline if it is crossed by another streamline in the foreground. ...
Finally, we make intense use of focus+context methods like magic volumes, region of interest driven streamline placing, and spotlights to solve the occlusion problem. ...
