  2. Hidden line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_line

    In mathematics, a hidden line is a geometric edge line [1] that is not visible from an observer's view of a shape or object. Cubes with hidden lines: dotted, dashed, and thin lines. Cubes with no hidden lines, and a cube with dotted lines to give 3 dimensional reference

  3. Hidden-line removal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-line_removal

    The hidden-line algorithm uses n 2 exclusive read, exclusive write (EREW) PRAM processors. The EREW model is the PRAM variant closest to real machines. The hidden-line algorithm does O(n 2 log n) work, which is the upper bound for the best sequential algorithms used in practice. Cook, Dwork and Reischuk gave an Ω(log n) lower bound for finding ...

  4. Hidden-surface determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden-surface_determination

    Hidden-surface determination is a process that identifies which surfaces are not visible to the user (for example, because they lie behind opaque objects such as walls). Despite advances in hardware capability, rendering algorithms require substantial computational resources.

  5. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    Standard engineering drawing line types. A variety of line styles graphically represent physical objects. Types of lines include the following: visible – are continuous lines used to depict edges directly visible from a particular angle. hidden – are short-dashed lines that may be used to represent edges that are not directly visible.

  6. Back-face culling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-face_culling

    Back-face culling may also be applied to other problems. For example, in wire-frame rendering, back-face culling can be used to partially address the problem of hidden-line removal, but only for closed convex geometry. Back-face culling can also be applied to flat surfaces other than polygons, for example disks, which have a constant normal ...

    Use What You've Got. As consumers, we interact with so many products on a regular basis that it's easy to overlook all of their features, even when they serve a specific purpose.In fact, many ...

  8. Warnock algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warnock_algorithm

    The Warnock algorithm is a hidden surface algorithm invented by John Warnock that is typically used in the field of computer graphics. [1] It solves the problem of rendering a complicated image by recursive subdivision of a scene until areas are obtained that are trivial to compute.
