Image Description, by
This is a screen-shot of Graphite, our research platform for 3D graphics
and numerical geometry. The example shows a Poser mesh with constrained
texture mapping applied to it. The technique is described in our
paper "Constrained Texture Mapping, Siggraph 2001, B. Levy". Since 2001
we have made some advances in terms of efficiency, and it is now possible
to warp the texture onto the model in real time.
Graphite has many other functionalities (curvature computation, volumic
data types, decimation and multiresolution, hardware-assisted Bezier
patches ...). It contains the results of four years of research.
Graphite is a cross-platform application, it works under Linux, Windows
and IRIX.
Graphite will be distributed as a GPL'ed OpenSource project.
A preliminary binary version for Windows can be downloaded from my
web page: http://www.loria.fr/~levy/Graphite/siggraph2001/index.html
(but it is for an old version, we need to update that).
It contains everything to reproduce the "Images of the day" we
previously posted (the 22nd and the 4th).
Note: NormalMap and Bezier shaders require an NVidia board (at least
a GeForce2).
