This tutorial discusses the Spatial Augmented Reality (SAR) concept, its advantages and
limitations. It will present examples of state-of-the-art display configurations, appropriate real …

Complex models generated eg with a laser range scanner often consist of several thousand
or million triangles. For efficient rendering this high number of primitives has to be reduced …

Networked Graphics equips programmers and designers with a thorough grounding in the
techniques used to create truly network-enabled computer graphics and games. Written for …

Cluster-based tiled display walls can provide cost-effective and scalable displays with high
resolution and a large display area. The software to drive them needs to scale too if …

Ultra-high-resolution tiled-display walls are typically driven by a cluster of computers. Each
computer may drive one or more displays. Synchronization between the computers is …

In the late 90's the emergence of high performance 3D commodity graphics cards opened
the way to use PC clusters for high performance Virtual Reality (VR) applications. Today PC …

Immersive Environments offer users the experience of being submerged in a virtual space,
effectively transcending the boundary between the real and virtual world. We present a …

Virtual reality systems make compelling outreach displays, but some such systems, like the
CAVE, have design features that make their use for that purpose inconvenient. In the case of …

Hardware-accelerated image composition for sort-last parallel rendering has received
increasing attention as an effective solution to increased performance demands brought …
