    FurCollide: Fast, Robust, and Controllable Fur Collisions with Meshes

Session/Category Title:   Procedural with Caution


Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    We present FurCollide, a fast, robust, and artist friendly tool used for collision detection and collision resolution of fur curves with meshes. The tool helps artists interact with and control tens of thousands of curves with ease while providing high fidelity realistic and/or artistic collision results. This tool is in use at DreamWorks Animation and has been used in a wide variety of fur and/or grass collision situations in various films.
