  1. Chapter 8 Implementation of a Renderer

  2. Rendering as a Black Box

  3. Object-Oriented v.s Image-Oriented for(each_object) render (object); for(each_pixel) assign_a_color(pixel);

  4. Four Major Tasks Modeling Geometric processing Rasterization Display

  5. Modeling Chapter 6: modeling of a sphere Chapter 9: hierarchical modeling Chapter 10: curves and surfaces Chapter 11: procedural modeling Can be combined with clipping to reduce the burden of the renderer

  6. Geometric Processing Normalization Clipping Hidden-Surface Removal(visible surface determination) Shading (combined with normals and lighting information to compute the color at each vertex)

  7. Rasterizatoin Also called scan-conversion Texture value is not needed until rasterization

  8. Display Usually this is not the concern of the application program Dealing with aliasing is one possible task at this stage Half-toning (dithering) Color-correction

  9. Implementation of Transformation Object (world) coordinates Eye (camera) coordinates Clip coordinates Normalized device coordinates Window (screen) coordinates

  10. Viewport Transformation

  11. Line-Segment Clipping Primitives pass through the clipper are accepted, Otherwise they are rejected or culled.

  12. Cohen-Sutherland Clipping Replace most of the expensive floating-point multiplications and divisions with a combination of floating-point subtractions and bit operations

  13. Breaking Up Spaces Each region is represented by a 4-bit outcode b0b1b2b3:

  14. Four Possible Cases Given a line segment, let o1=outcode(x1,y1), o2=outcode(x2, y2) (o1=o2=0)  it is in the clipping window (AB) (o10, o2=0; or vice versa)  one or two intersections must be computed, and the outcode of the intersection point is re-examined (CD) (o1&o20)  it is on the same outside sides of the window (EF) (o1&o2=0)  Cannot tell, find the outcode of one intersection point (GH, IJ)

  15. Discussion Cohen-Sutherland algorithm works best when there are many line segments but few are actually displayed The main disadvantage is it must be used recursively How to compute intersection?y=mx+h (cannot represent a vertical line)

  16. Liang-Barsky Clipping Represent parametrically a line segment: Note that this form is robust and needs no changes for horizontal or vertical lines

  17. Examples 4 4 2 3 3 2 1 1 1>4> 3> 2> 1>0 1>4> 2> 3> 1>0

  18. Avoid Computing Intersections For intersecting with the top: All the tests required by the algorithm can be done by comparing ymax and y. Only if an intersection is needed, because a segment has to be shortened, is the division done. This way, we could avoid multiple shortening of line segments and the re-execution of the clipping algorithm.

  19. Polygon Clipping Creation of a single polygon 

  20. Dealing with Concave Polygons Forbid the use of concave polygons or tessellate them.

  21. Sutherland-Hodgeman Algorithm A line-segment clipper can be envisioned as a black box

  22. Clipping Against the Four Sides

  23. Example 1

  24. Example 2

  25. Clipping of Other Primitives Bounding Boxes and Volumes Curves, Surfaces, and Text Clipping in the Frame Buffer

  26. Bounding Boxes and Volumes Axis-aligned bounding box (Extent) Can be used in collision detection!

  27. Clipping for Curves and Surfaces Avoid complex intersection computation by approximating curves with line segments and surfaces with planar polygons and only perform the calculation when it’s necessary

  28. Clipping for Text • Text can be treated as bitmaps and dealt with in the frame buffer • Or defined as any other geometric object, and processed through the standard viewing pipeline • OpenGL allows both • Pixel operations on bitmapped characters • Standard primitives for stroke characters

  29. Clipping the Frame Buffer It’s usually known as scissoring It’s usually better to clip geometric entities before the vertices reach the frame buffer Thus clipping within the frame buffer is only required for raster objects (blocks of pixels)

  30. Clipping in Three Dimensions

  31. Cohen-Sutherland 3D Clipping Replace the 4-bit outcode with a 6-bit outcode

  32. Liang-Barsky and Pipe-line Clipper Liang-Barsky: add the equation Pipe-line Clipper: add the clippers for the front and back faces

  33. Intersections in 3D Requires six multiplications and one division

  34. Clipping for Different Viewings Oblique Viewing Orthographic Viewing Only need six divisions!

  35. OpenGL Normalizaton

  36. Hidden-Surface Removal Object-Space Approaches Image-Space Approaches

  37. Object-Space Approach O(k2)! A completely obscures B from the camera; we display only A B obscures A; we display only B A and B both are completely visible; we display both A and B A and B partially obscure each other; we must calculate the visible parts of each polygon

  38. Image-Space Approach Assuming nm pixels, then using the Z-buffer algorithm takes nmk running time, which is O(k) May create more jagged rendering result

  39. Back-Face Removal In normalized device coordinates:  If the polygon is on the surface ax+by+cz+d=0, we just need to check The sign of c. In OpenGL, use glCullFace() to turn on back-face removal

  40. The z-Buffer Algorithm The frame buffer is initialized to the background color. The depth buffer is initialized to the farthest distance. Normalization may affect the depth accuracy. Use glDepthFunc() to determine what to do if distances are equal.

  41. Incremental z-Buffer Algorithm

  42. Painter’s Algorithm Back-to-front rendering

  43. Depth Sorting – 1/2

  44. Depth Sorting – 2/2

  45. Two Troublesome Cases for Depth Sorting May resolve these cases by partitioning/clipping

  46. The Scan-Line Algorithm Scan-line by scan-line or polygon by polygon?

  47. DDA (digital differential analyzer) Algo. Pseudo code: m float, y float, x int For (ix=x1; ix<=x2; ix++) { y+=m; write_pixel(x, round(y), line_color); }

  48. Using Symmetry With symmetry to handle the case where m>1 Without using symmetry

  49. Bresenham’s Algorithm – 1/4 The DDA algorithm, although simple, still requires floating point addition for each pixel generated Bresenham derived a line-rasterization algorithm that avoids all floating-point calculation and has become the standard algorithm used in hardware and software rasterizers

  50. Bresenham’s Algorithms – 2/4 – Assume 0m  1 And assume we have placed a pixel at (i+1/2, j+1/2) Assume y=mx+h At x=i+1/2, this line must pass within one-half the length of the pixel at (i+1/2, j+1/2)
