Interactive Inverted Perspective Rendering for Architectural Visualization
Srinivasan Vinod, Ozener Ozan Onder, Ergün Akleman · 2005
Abstract: Inverted perspective is an illusion of depth perception characterized by the inversion of depth cues in the scene. Distant parts of the scene are shown larger and nearer parts shown smaller than they would appear in linear perspective to achieve the illusion. In this paper, we present a method to achieve this illusion in real-time for interactive applications. We also present a 3D modelling environment for conceptual design which makes use of this display method. Apart from the artistic and perceptual applications of inverted perspective rendering, our method is also very useful for creating an active viewport scene for 3D modelling of solid models with boundaries and complex interior structures. Effective and legible visualization of complex conceptual objects with different kind of layered structures is an important topic for design research. Our method also enables the user to easily create non-photorealistic renderings to understand both the interior and exterior structure of a spatial model from a single image. 1
