| Self Contouring Technique (Maya, Vista, C++)   Viz Credits: Amit Chourasia |
Encoding same information in 2 ways to reveal more info(Redundancy encoding). One way through color and other way through bump mapping. The data is color mapped on the top left image. On the lower left image the same color scheme is used and in addition a grey scale(much wider range then color) image of the same data is used to do bump mapping.The results are startling as one can see subtle variations in color which go undetected when just color encoded. I developed this technique and then found out that someone has already written a paper on similar techniques a few years ago :( None the less its a useful technique | Sept 2005 More Images More Images More Images More Images |
