In this paper, we proposed new software for 3D rendering of MR images in the medical domain using C# wrapper of Visualization Toolkit (VTK) and Microsoft .NET framework. Our objective in developing this software was to provide medical image segmentation, 3D rendering and visualization of hippocampus for diagnosis of Alzheimer disease patients using DICOM Images. Such three dimensional visualization can play an important role in the diagnosis of Alzheimer disease. Segmented images can be used to reconstruct the 3D volume of the hippocampus, and it can be used for the feature extraction, measure the surface area and volume of hippocampus to assist the diagnosis process. This software has been designed with interactive user interfaces and graphic kernels based on Microsoft.NET framework to get benefited from C# programming techniques, in particular to design pattern and rapid application development nature, a preliminary interactive window is functioning by invoking C#, and the kernel of VTK is simultaneously embedded in to the window, where the graphics resources are then allocated. Representation of visualization is through an interactive window so that the data could be rendered according to user's preference.

볼륨렌더링은 주로 의학 및 과학 분야에서 사용되는 기법이었으나, 하드웨어의 발달과 더불어 다양한 응용프로그램에서의 적용이 가능해짐에 따라 볼륨렌더링에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 볼륨렌더링의 시각화에 있어서 쉐이딩은 물체의 깊이 정보를 효율적으로 전달하여 시각적 인지에 큰 도움이 된다. 전역조명을 사용하면 시각적 인지를 향상시킬 수 있지만, 많은 GPU 메모리의 사용과 긴 연산시간으로 인해 프로그램과의 상호작용에 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 렌더링 속도의 저하를 최소화하며 볼륨렌더링에 사실적인 쉐이딩을 적용하기 위하여 이미지 공간 폐색 쉐이딩 모델을 제안하고자 한다.

햅틱 렌더링이 발전함에 따라서 촉감을 통하여 사용자에게 전달하려고 하는 가상 물체의 성질도 다양해 지고 있다. 이 논문은 균일하지 않은 강도(Stiffness)를 가지는 가상 물체를 기존의 페널티 기반 알고리즘(Penalty-based algorithms)을 사용하여 렌더링하는 경우 물체 표면의 모양(Topography)이 사용된 모델과 달리 왜곡되어 인지되는 현상을 해결하기 위한 햅틱 렌더링 알고리즘에 관한 연구를 보고한다. 첫 번째로 저자의 선행 연구인 힘 유지 가설(Force Constancy Hypothesis) - 사용자가 물체 표면의 모양을 획득하기 위해 물체를 만질 때 일정한 크기의 접촉 힘을 유지한다 - 을 소개한다. 다음으로 힘 유지 가설에 기반한 물체의 모양 및 강도를 왜곡 없이 정확하게 렌더링하는 알고리즘을 제안하고 폴리곤 모델에 적용하는 방법을 설명한다. 마지막으로 실험을 통하여 개발된 알고리즘의 성능을 입증한다.

3D CAD technology has been extended to a medical area including dental clinic beyond industrial design. The 2D images obtained by CT(Computerized Tomography) and MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging) are not intuitive, and thus the volume rendering technique, which transforms 2D data into 3D anatomic information, has been in practical use. This paper has focused on a method and its implementation for forming 3D geometric surface model from laminated CT images of the pubis. The implemented system could support a dental clinic to observe and examine the status of a patient's pubis before implant surgery. The supplement of 3D implant model would help dental surgeons settle operation plans more safely and confidently. It also would be utilized with teaching materials for a practice and training.

This paper proposes a novel technique for 3D scene relighting with interactive viewpoint changes. The proposed technique is based on a deep framebuffer framework for fast relighting computation which adopts image-based techniques to provide arbitrary view-changing. In the preprocessing stage, the shading parameters required for the surface shaders, such as surface color, normal, depth, ambient/diffuse/specular coefficients, and roughness, are cached into multiple deep framebuffers generated by several caching cameras which are created in an automatic manner. When the user designs the lighting setup, the relighting renderer builds a map to connect a screen pixel for the current rendering camera to the corresponding deep framebuffer pixel and then computes illumination at each pixel with the cache values taken from the deep framebuffers. All the relighting computations except the deep framebuffer pre-computation are carried out at interactive rates by the GPU.

This paper presents the method of 3D reconstruction of the depth information from the endoscopic stereo scopic images. After camera modeling to find camera parameters, we performed feature-point based stereo matching to find depth information. Acquired some depth information is finally 3D reconstructed using the NURBS(Non Uniform Rational B-Spline) algorithm. The final result image is helpful for the understanding of depth information visually.

In smart factories, the entire manufacturing process from design to the final product is simulated in a virtual manufacturing environment and optimized before starting production. Suppliers and customers make decisions based on the simulation results. Therefore, effective rendering of the information of the virtual products to suppliers and customers is essential for this manufacturing paradigm. In this study, a method of rendering the surface roughness of the virtual products using a tactile display is presented. A tactile display device comprising a $3{\times}3$ array of individually controlled piezoelectric stack actuators is constructed. The surface topology of the virtual products is rendered directly by controlling the piezoelectric stack actuators. A series of experiments is performed to evaluate the performance of the tactile display device. An electrical discharge machined surface is rendered using the proposed method.

It is essential for generating the synthetic image to test and evaluate a guided missile system in the hardware-in-the-loop simulation. In order to make the evaluation results to be more reliable, the extent of fidelity and rendering performance of the synthetic image cannot be left ignored. There are numerous challenges to simulate the LWIR sensor signature of sea surface depending on the incident angle, especially in the maritime environment. In this paper, we investigate the key factors in determining the apparent temperature of sea surface and propose the approximate formula consisting of optical characteristics of sea surface and sky radiance. We find that the greater the incident angle increases, the larger the reflectivity of sea surface, and the greater the water vapor concentration in atmosphere increases, the larger the amount of sky radiance. On the basis of this information, we generate the virtual maritime environment in LWIR region using the SE-WORKBENCH, physically based rendering software. The margin of error is under seven percentage points.
