Description:
A demonstration of a fast rendering algorithm to create photo-realistic trees in daylight. 3D tree models are transformed to a quasi-3D tree by using a combination of 2D buffers. With a two-step shadowing algorithm, the quasi-3D trees create high-quality forest scenes with umbrae and penumbrae and transparency effects, specular reflection, and inter-reflection of leaves at a low cost. The number of polygons in the ground and trees are 30,000 and 10,000 respectively.
Average computing time per frame was 80 seconds on a 1.8 GHz PC.
