Real-time hidden-line elimination for a rotating polyhedral scene using the aspect representation
Harry Plantinga, Charles R. Dyer, Seales, Brent · 1990
The three-dimensional structure of an object is easier to perceive when the object is rotating or when the viewer moves to see it from a range of viewpoints. Thus, CAD systems are usually able to display an object as it rotates. Topologists may more easily perceive the structure of a polyhedral model of a knot and biologists the structure of a molecule using such rotations. In
