In this project we helped Xcelgo with a brand new custom DirectX 11 renderer as a replacement of their existing fixed function DirectX 9.0 renderer. Xcelgo provides virtual automation software for 3D modeling along the cycle of automated material handling systems – Like airport baggage handling or larger warehouse storage systems. The purpose of their product is to eliminate the risks involved in building these large and very expensive systems, by allowing simulation and modelling of the system up front…
(In Danish) LEGO Digital Designer er et frit tilgængeligt program til at bygge LEGO-modeller i 3D på en almindelig computer. Konsulentaftalen med Alexandra Instituttet har løbet siden december 2009, og vi har i den forløbne tid implementeret en række teknikker der giver en afgørende bedre realisme i den interaktive grafiske fremstilling af LEGO-klodser. Avancerede visuelle effekter Det drejer sig om visuelle effekter som bløde skygger, refleksioner og farveblødning. Disse visuelle fænomener er vigtige for en god forståelse af form, materiale…
We are playing around with our CUDA ray tracing software. The design philosophy is to create a real-time ray tracing experience that allows the user to play with the visual parameters and get an instant feedback. This is not something revolutionary but ray tracing is such a flexible rendering technique, so the basic software can be used in a lot areas. In this demo the user can change and update the material properties at runtime. We finally found a decent…
