Visualization

• Visualization can be defined as technique for creating images,

diagrams or animations to communicate ideas.

• It concentrates basically on visual appearance of objects.

• Projection and shading are two most common methods of

visualizing geometric models.

• Orthographic projection is one of the oldest methods.

Page 3: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• Orthographic projection is difficulty in interpreting various views

and also time consuming.

• CAD use isometric and perspective projection in addition to

orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with

complete design information.

• Visual realism can also convey appearance characteristics of the

model such as color and texture.

Page 4: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

Two important methods ofvisualization

• Animation• Simulation

Page 5: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• 3D models are used to create the visual real effect.

• The object may consist of number of vertices ,edges ,surfaces which

are represented realistically in 3D modeling.

• The major problem in visualization of object is representing the

depth of 3D object into 2D screens.

• Projection 3D object into 2D screen displays the complex lines and

curves which may not give a clear picture to interpret .

Methods towards visual realism in CAD

• Hidden line removal (HLR)

• Hidden surface removal (HSR)

• Hidden solid removal approaches

Page 7: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

Three process sequence in model clean –up

1. Generating orthographic views of

the model.

2. Eliminating hidden lines in each

view by applying visual realism

principle.

3. Changing the necessary hidden

lines are dashed lines.

Page 8: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• For a given three dimensional scene a given viewing point and a

given direction form an appropriate two dimensional projection of the

edges and faces which the observer cannot see.

• Various hidden line and hidden surface removal algorithms have been

developed .

These algorithms may be classified into

1. Object space method

2. Image space method

Page 9: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

Object space method• Object are described in the world coordinate system.

• It compares the objects and parts to each other within the scene

definition to determine which surfaces are visible.

• Image space method is implemented in the screen coordinate

system in which the objects are viewed.

• The visibility is decided point by point at each pixel position on the

view plane .

Image space method

Page 10: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• Image space algorithms are much more efficient than object space

algorithms

•Object space algorithms are much more functional than image space

algorithms.

• Color calculation in object space algorithms is done only one time

and is retained by it but in image space algorithm the calculation

once done is over written later.

• Hidden line and hidden surface algorithms use image space method.

STEP1 – 3D models have to be modified in such faces and order of their edges .

STEP2- Geometric transformation to the 3D data to obtain the 2D image data.

STEP3-sorting –is an operation that orders given set of records according to

a selected criterion.

• The elements of a scene or its image have some interrelation ships known as

coherence. Coherence is a measure of how rapidly a scene or its image changes.

• Coherence of a set of data can improve the speed of its sorting significantly.

STEP4-The visibility techniques normally check for overlapping of pairs of

polygons in the viewing plane.

Page 13: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

STEP5 – The surface test to eliminate the blackfaces is usually sufficient to solve

the hidden line if the image has no holes.

STEP6 –Final images .

Visibility Techniques

• Minimax test

• Containment test

• Surface test

• Computing Silhouettes

• Edge intersection

• Segment Comparisons

Page 15: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

Minimax test

• Test compares whether 2 polygons overlap or not.

• Each polygon is enclosed in box by finding its maximum and minimum X

and Y coordinates .

• If two boxes do not intersect, their corresponding polygons do not overlap,

no testing is required.

• If the minimax test fails (two box interest),each edges of one polygon is

compared against all the edges of the other polygon to detect intersections .

Containment test

• This test checks whether the location of a given point is inside or

outside of given polygon.

• For a convex polygon X and Y coordinates value of the points is

substituted into the line equation to see the results on the given edge .

• If the result of the sign same, the points lie on the same side.

Edge intersection

• In this techniques hidden line algorithm initially calculate the edges

intersection in two dimensions.

• These intersection are used to determine the edge visibility.

• The intersections are used to determine the

Edge visibility.

The two edges intersect at a point where

Y2-Y1=0 .

Segment comparison

• This visibility techniques is used to solve hidden surface problems in image

space

• In image display or raster display scan lines are arranged on display screen from

top to bottom and left to right.

• The display screen is divided in to no of

Small segments .

This technique is use to solve the problem piecewise and a total image.

Surface test or back face test• There are surface which are facing the viewer (front faces ) and there are

surfaces which are opposite to the viewer (back faces).

• A back face test is used to determine the location of a surface with respect to

other surface.

• Test can provide an efficient way of implementing the depth comparison to

remove the faces which are not visible in a specific view port .

• Face whose surface normal has positive component in Z direction are visible

and those whose surface normal has a negative Z component are not visible.

Silhouettes

• A set of edges which separates visible faces from invisible faces of an object

with respect to a given viewing direction is called silhouettes edges.

• Silhouettes is characterized as the intersection of one visible face and one

invisible face.

• Silhouettes are computed by using the sign of component of the surface

normal along the view direction .

Hidden line removal algorithms

1.Depth algorithm or Z algorithm or Priority algorithm

2.Area oriented algorithms

3.Overlay algorithms

4.Robert algorithms

Page 28: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

Priority or depth or z-algorithm

• STEP1 –write the formulae vertices with coordinates of

(X,Y,Z).

• STEP2-Remove back faces to improve efficiency of the

priority algorithm.

Page 29: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design
Page 30: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• STEP3- assign priorities to the faces in the face list.

• Eq1 for both faces F1 and F4 ,the corresponding ZV values of

point C can be calculated and compared.

• The face with the highest ZV values is assigned the highest

priority.

• (In the case of an edge of intersection, both faces are assigned the

same priority).

• (In the case of no face intersection, no priority is assigned )

Page 31: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• F1 intersects F2 and F3 in edges, therefore both faces assigned

as priority 1

• F1 and F4 intersect in area. Using depth test F4 is less than

F1,so F4 assigned priority 2.

• We intersect F1 and F5 we obtain empty set no priority

assignment is possible.

• Face 1 is moved to the end of the face list and sorting process

to determine the priority starts over again.

Page 32: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• Each iteration, the first face in the face list is assigned priority 1.

• The End of each iteration is detected by no intersection.

• Four iterations that yield the final priority list.

• Fourth iteration shows faces F4 to F6 are assigned the priority 1 first .

• When F4 is intersected with F1,the depth shows that F1 has highest

priority.

• F1 is assigned as priority 1 and the priority of F4 to F6 is dropped to

2.

Page 33: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• STEP4 -Reorder the face and priority list so that the highest priority is on

top of the list in this case [F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6] and [1,1,1,2,2,2].

• STEP5- Display the faces in the reverse order of their priority.

• STEP6- The edges of faces are compared with all other edges of higher

priority.

• An edges list can be created which maintains a list of all line segment

that will have be drawn as visible .

• Visible techniques used for this method edge intersection and

containment test.

Ray tracing or Ray –casting algorithm

• Ray-tracing is the process of tracking and plotting the path taken by

the rays of light staring at a light source to the center of the view

projection .

Page 55: VISUAL REALISM - Sri Eshwar College of Engineering · 2018-01-30 · VISUAL REALISM. Visualization ... orthographic projections for generating rich visual images with complete design

• Ray casting is to shoot rays from the eye, one per pixel, and find the closet

object blocking the path of that ray .

• This process involves an infinite number of lights rays, the light rays a traced

backward i.e. a ray from the view point is traced through the pixel until it

reaches a surface.

• X*Y resolution of screen ,XY pixels and so XY light rays are traced.

• After calculating all ray surfaces intersections ,the visible surface can be

identified as the one whose intersection point is the closest to the pixel.
