摘要： A method of displaying a computer generated hologram includes displaying the image as a set of facets that approximated to the true shape of the object to be displayed. Each of these facets is populated with points that together make up the image. The invention provides a number of array structures that allow adjoining facets at different orientations and angles to be populated with point without creating areas around the join of either point overpopulation or point underpopulation, and so results in a higher quality image. The invention is mainly applicable for producing interference base Computer Generated Holograms, but can also be used in other types of 3D display that make up objects from an array of points.

摘要： An information processing device, for aiding operations relating to position and orientation of a virtual object positioned in three-dimensional space, comprises: an image-taking unit for taking images in real space in order to display the virtual object in a superimposed manner on real space; a synthesizing unit for synthesizing a virtual object with the taken image; an operating unit for operating the position and orientation of the virtual object; an aiding unit for obtaining a three-dimensional position of real space from external instructions, and obtaining a constraining shape for aiding in operations for the position and orientation of the virtual object; wherein the position and orientation of the virtual object are operated by instructions from the operating unit, based on constraint conditions based on the constraining shape obtained by the aiding unit. Thus, constraining shapes can be dynamically created in a compounded space, and virtual objects can be readily operated using constraining shapes even where constraining shapes have not been registered beforehand.

摘要： A three dimensional space is displayed on a two-dimensional display screen, a coordinate value, and a pressing force value of the point within the two-dimensional display screen designated by a user are detected, and a position within the three-dimensional space is specified according to the coordinate value and passing force value. This means it is possible for a user to easily designate an arbitrary point within a three-dimensional space by designating a point on a two-dimensional display screen. Namely, it is possible to easily designate an arbitrary point within a three-dimensional space by natural operation that is close to the operation in the real world with high accuracy.

摘要： A program which can render an object dynamically by using metaballs in a three-dimensional imaginary space is provided. All metaballs MB are disposed in an imaginary box IB, (r/R)2 is calculated according to a calculation equation expressing a given solid shape of a metaball MB from a center of the metaball MB towards the minimum direction and the maximum direction of a voxel index of a voxel Vx for each vertex of the voxel Vx. At this time, a second-order divided difference is calculated, based upon the second-order divided difference and a first-order divided difference calculated last time the first-order divided difference is updated, and (r/R)2 is calculated (S618 and S634) Only two times of addition are performed by utilizing information on vertexes of the adjacent voxels Vx calculated last time, thereby a computation time for (r/R)2 can be shortened.

The apparatus includes a mesh setting unit, a solid shape setting unit and a solid simulation unit. The mesh setting unit sets a uniform simulation mesh in an object region of a simulation. The solid shape setting unit sets a shape of the solid in the uniform simulation mesh. The solid simulation unit simulates the movement of the solid on the basis of the shape while taking into account an acting force on the solid exerted by the fluid.

摘要： A virtual microscope slide includes images of a specimen for a given level of optical magnification which are associated and stored in a data structure. The forming of the data structure having the multiple Z-plane images preferably includes automatically focusing at a principal reference focal plane and capturing and digitizing an optically magnified reference Z-image and then shifting the specimen relative to the lens system by a predetermined increment to capture and digitize another Z-plane image. Preferably, a multiple sequence of Z-plane images above and below the reference image and captured and digitized. For ease of retrieval and use, each reference image has its associated Z-plane images are formed in a stack that is sent over the Internet, or Intranet to a local computer storage for quick retrieval when a viewer wants to mimic a focusing up or down to better view a detail in an image. Thus, the resultant images are retrieved and displayed such that a virtual focusing capability is available to the user. The images can be formed with overlapping fields of depth, adjacent fields of depth, or wholly separated fields of depth.

摘要： A method is for inverting a distorted surface presentation into an undistorted surface presentation in a detail-in-context presentation system including the steps of: selecting an input point on the undistorted surface; calculating a vector from the input point to a reference viewpoint; locating a starting point lying above the distorted surface and on the vector; locating a first bracketing point for a first intersection point of the vector and the distorted surface lying above the distorted surface and on the vector; locating a second bracketing point for the first intersection point lying below the distorted surface, and below the first intersection point, but above any subsequent intersection points of the vector and the distorted surface; locating a midpoint between the first and second bracketing points; and, determining if the midpoint is an acceptable approximation for the first intersection point thus being an inversion point corresponding to the input point.
