The European art history with Impressionism, Expressionism and Romanticism is taken as reference for creating these emotional renderings because the painters of these areas wanted to evoke nothing more but pure emotions in just one single “frame”. This technology can be used for all kinds of interactive applications but mainly for games in which the player naturally undergoes many different sensations. We believe that emotional renderings can help a lot to create a much deeper emotional gaming experience where the graphics are directly linked to the emotional state of the player.", "authors_et_al": false, "substitute": null, "main_image": { "description": "Cover", "filetitle": "Image", "main_file": true, "use_in_gallery": false, "access": "public", "image_width": 1024, "image_height": 768, "name": "Sturn-2013-ST-Image.png", "type": "image/png", "size": 1490976, "path": "Publication:Sturn-2013-ST", "url": "https://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/publications/2013/Sturn-2013-ST/Sturn-2013-ST-Image.png", "thumb_image_sizes": [ 16, 64, 100, 175, 300, 600 ], "thumb_url": "https://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/publications/2013/Sturn-2013-ST/Sturn-2013-ST-Image:thumb{{size}}.png" }, "sync_repositum_override": null, "repositum_presentation_id": null, "authors": [ 909 ], "isbn": "978-3-639-47141-0", "pages": "104", "publisher": "AV Akademikerverlag", "research_areas": [ "Rendering" ], "keywords": [ "Computer Graphics", "Emotional Rendering", "Non Photorealistic Rendering", "Real-Time Rendering" ], "weblinks": [], "files": [ { "description": "Cover", "filetitle": "Image", "main_file": true, "use_in_gallery": false, "access": "public", "image_width": 1024, "image_height": 768, "name": "Sturn-2013-ST-Image.png", "type": "image/png", "size": 1490976, "path": "Publication:Sturn-2013-ST", "url": "https://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/publications/2013/Sturn-2013-ST/Sturn-2013-ST-Image.png", "thumb_image_sizes": [ 16, 64, 100, 175, 300, 600 ], "thumb_url": "https://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/publications/2013/Sturn-2013-ST/Sturn-2013-ST-Image:thumb{{size}}.png" } ], "projects_workgroups": [ "rend" ], "url": "https://www.cg.tuwien.ac.at/research/publications/2013/Sturn-2013-ST/", "__class": "Publication" }, { "id": "EISEMANN-2011-RTS", "type_id": "book", "tu_id": null, "repositum_id": null, "title": "Real-Time Shadows", "date": "2011", "abstract": "Important elements of games, movies, and other computer-generated content, shadows are crucial for enhancing realism and providing important visual cues.

Also, a\nmethod to efficiently render leaves is introduced.\nLeaves exhibit a complex light transport behavior due to subsurface scattering and special attention is given to the translucency of leaves, an integral part of leaf shading.\nTo animate a tree, a novel deformation method based on a structural mechanics model that incorporates the important physical properties of branches is introduced. To drive this deformation, an optimized spectral approach that also incorporates the physical properties of branches is used. Additionally, a method to use dynamic skylight models in spherical harmonics precomputed radiance transfer techniques is introduced, allowing to change the skylight parameters in real time.
