Line drawing for a volumetric display |
March 14, 2006 |
| A method for rapid rendering of a desired line in a volumetric display having a rotatable screen includes stepping the rotatable screen through a sequence of angular positions and, at each angular position, rendering, on the rotatable screen, a rasterized approximation of a line segment |

Rasterization of lines in a cylindrical voxel grid |
December 3, 2002 |
| In a cylindrical coordinate system, the dominant direction of a line changes in a predictable manner. A rasterizer uses this fact to efficiently render a desired line on a volumetric display. It does do by determining whether first and second points on the desired line are on first a |
