Discussion about final project topic


We both have some sort of artistic training and highly interested in non-photorealistic rendering. We did a lot of research on ACM portal about GPU-based rendering techniques. We found several topics that interested us most. We narrowed down our selection to "Real-Time Pencil Rendering"

We both read the paper very carefully and began to discuss about more details. If time permits, we may incorporate some components of another paper "Real-Time Hatching". We decided use CG as it is up to now common to use and require low hardware specification.

We have now almost finished our final project proposal document although it is due on March 17, since we wanna enjoy our spring break. : ). Later in the semester we may need to live in HMS or Moore, who knows, hope it won't happen.
