Compression Techniques for Massive Point Set Surfaces, with Application to Ray Tracing
Erik Hubo · Document Server@UHasselt (UHasselt) · 2007
With the increasing capabilities of 3D data scanning devices, point set surfaces are becoming increasingly popular. Even though using points sets already lessens storage requirements (connectivity information is not stored), the ever increasing amount of acquired geometric information gives rise to an equally growing demand for data that needs a compact representation to be stored, transmitted, processed and rendered efficiently....
