Course 8

 Texture Synthesis with Line Integral Convolution

Half Day | Intermediate

Line Integral Convolution (LIC) is a powerful texture-based approach for conveying directional information that has numerous applications in scientific visualization, special effects, and art. This intensive course teaches the basic LIC algorithm and its optimization and provides attendees with an opportunity to interactively experiment with these implementations. It also shows how LIC techniques can be used to portray flow over arbitrary surfaces, visualize three-dimensional vector fields, and create non-photorealistic illustrations.
