               TR-186-2-01-02. We present Lazy Occlusion Grid Culling, a
               new image-based occlusion culling technique for rendering of
               very large scenes which can be of general type. It is based
               on a low-resolution grid that is updated in a lazy manner
               and that allows fast decisions if an object is occluded or
               visible together with a hierarchical scene-representation to
               cull large parts of the scene at once. It is
               hardware-accelerateable and it works efficiently even on
               systems where pixel-based occlusion testing is              
                 implemented in software.",
